lyrics

my daughter died in the deep blue dark
drowned in her mother's womb
held her but she was so cold
she couldn't save herself, you know
I heard it's nothing, I've been told
I should be afraid of the sea, scared of the sound
frightened of flesh eating eels
in the water we'll drown and the salt will surround
as our bodies decay to be slowly consumed by those monsters
it comes and goes it waves

I've been drifting for so long my fingers are pruny
my eyes have gone blind in the sun
my body is limp as the current runs through me
in and out of my breathless lungs
I'm not afraid of the ocean
not frightened of sharks as I am of my own skin
what lies beneath is hard to know
I heard its nothing, I've been told
it comes and goes it waves
