lyrics

With my innards spilling out to sea
Waiting for my follies to bury me
The depths mean nothing
If there is no closure to be found
Underneath memories and sound

I know I will never learn

I'll just let the sea wash over me
Maybe then the tides will let me be
This kingdom below will be my only home
I guess I'll just drift off alone

I'm sinking, anchored by regrets
Left alone to wonder what comes next
I'm sinking, gasping for air
With thoughts that only exist when I care

What's left of me the sea has engulfed
What has been lost, what has been lost? (x2)

I'm sinking I'm sinking
You'll never again
See my face
I've seen the end

At some point in our lives we all must choose a path
To sink or swim, to pray to god this lasts
I'll watch this city crumble into the sea
Waiting for my hopes to salvage me

I'll just let the sea wash over me
Maybe then the tides will let me be
This kingdom below will be my only home
I guess I'll just drift off alone

I'll fight the tide, as I'm watching it rise
Dragging me to where I will subside
And I'll fight the waves
But they're pulling me to my grave (x2)
