Land & Sea

Sunlight glistening away offshore Cloud crowded skys aren't blue any more Sharp slippy rocks under my feet The wind blowing rain (and) hale and sleet The howling winds can't blow away sins Th Sunrise promises 'a better day begins' Anther day removes another layer Another sin, brings another pray-er Moon pulled waters wash stains away Graceful moments might save the day In the stone lies a dead reptile Controlling a legacy is just futile Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le Sitting on the shore Between land and sea Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le The light from the height Saving sailors and me Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le The light guides When I'm all at sea Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le Man's greatest bane is to forget But this man's not ready quite yet Distant fires burn in the skies I'm not ready to close my eyes God's a placeholder for all the rage And it all starts with a blank page Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le Sitting on the shore Between land and sea Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le The bell on the well Saving sailors and me Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le The bell on the well Brings clarity Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le Chance is the woven fabric of life Change is certain, so is the strife Make a space for those without It all disappears, when the lights go out You don't need another reason Calling on god is just species treason Don't think of saving your soul Saving another is what makes you whole Saving another is what makes you whole Here I sit between land and sea Cathedrals of rock looming over me There's a climb to escape the tide Wild white horses too wild to ride Fossilised remains beneath my sole Tell me time is eternal at the gallows pole Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le Sitting on the shore Between land and sea Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le Murk misty fog Wraps up me Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le Light at night Sets me free Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le Sitting on the shore Between land and sea Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le Well there's no hell It's just you and me Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le Your voice springs Hope eternally Fa-la-la-la-la Fa-la-la-la-le
