lyrics

in the middle of an unseen ocean
there’s a man who sleeps atop the rocks
never wondering where it begins or stops
and sets into motion all the waves
lapping on to all our crops
he speaks the beat by which the world will turn away
never knowing who started it all off
so he goes on as if in a dream

tell me something, if nothing else challenging
break my notions, I’ll crumble as you lie to me
give me steps to change my feet
I’ll break loose when you set me free

relapse to the waves of my heart beating
run to the force of your wake receding
intangible losses and aching knees
onward I’ll take only what I need
but i miss the pace of a world brand new
when I could find faith in a man like you
dreaming in crosses and space between
reaching as far down as the road work’s seen

tell me something, if nothing else challenging
break my notions, I’ll crumble as you lie to me
give me steps to change my feet
I’ll break loose when you set me free

relapse to the waves of my heart beating
run to the force of your wake receding
intangible losses and aching knees
onward I’ll take only what I need
but i miss the pace of a world brand new
when I could find faith in a man like you
dreaming in crosses and space between
reaching as far down as the road work’s seen

(the water is pouring in
we’re going down
I’ll never let go
the water is pouring in
we’re going down
I’ll never let go)

in the middle of an unseen ocean
there’s a man who sleeps atop the rocks
never wondering where it begins or stops
and sets into motion all the waves
lapping on to all our crops
he speaks the beat by which the world will turn away
never knowing who started it all off
so he goes on as if in a dream
