tide Lyrics

Waves are breaking

And my body's coming home

All which is frozen

To the bone

Stare in the storm

Stare for the glow of light

Up in the distance

Just a couple more miles

We're coming home

Throw down the ropes

Call for the sirens

To keep us afloat

Just for the night

There goes the cows nest

There goes the cry

There's Billy Bones' Odyssey

Washed over the side

The storm kept on raging

So sing me a lullaby

Barrels are broken

But we'll keep our lives

Then came the terror

Out of the black and dark

Out for the sinking

All out of luck

We're still coming home

So throw down the ropes

And call for the sirens

To keep us afloat

Just for the night

And there go your hopes

Away with the tide

I'll drift towards you

As you drift alive

Waves are breaking

And my bodies getting cold

Follow the waves in

Carry me home
