Consider The Sea

Tides will rise, the time will call

Wish I never saw it fall beneath

Who we are and what we've done

It hasn't shown

Don't tell me that this is just a reason to sleep

Compare your hands to mine

And see who tried this time

And wanting nothing more than to flee these streets

You live for night but this is light

So consider the sea

And I won't say you're useless

Because I've seen you dream

And convincing the sun not to rise won't hide you

And I won't say you're useless

Because of these sea-sick dreams

Forty winks, placid and stationary

Don't tell me that this is just a reason to sleep

Compare your hands to mine

And see who tried this time

And wanting nothing more than to flee these streets

You live for night but this is light

So consider the sea

For the words I lack

And places I won't go

In fear of never coming back

Don't tell me that this is just a reason to sleep

Compare your hands to mine

And see who tried this time

And wanting nothing more than to flee these streets

You live for night but this is light

So consider the sea
