lyrics

I can see your face in the glistening wash of the ocean
And the mist hangs mute and moist around my hair
What death is this, or is it just some kind of question?
What sacred loving voice could break my heart?

These altars and thrones I built with my bones
They left me all alone
Some spirit, some death, some breath on my neck
Some barren and nauseous crone
Now a system of dreams is all I can see
And the crosses are split into three
And the river runs on, its battle is won
It'll carry the blood to the sea

The rolling tide will catch you when you are weakest
And it'll bury you, just like the flood of tears
It'll gather up every last shred of warmth that's within you
And leave you face to face with all your fears
