A Hundred Ropes

You told me not to take a look Never thought this could happen Here we are on an open sea With no way to go back You hold me as you shiver The coral beneath us glows There's so much to discover All my senses are numb And a storm is rising The blood rushes and the current swirls Lungs full about to burst Like a pulley of a hundred ropes As you come back up for the next breath The ocean is at war Reckless, scattered and torn There is everything to fear my love The tide is out and the fight is up No more tired resistance The storm is closer than you ever thought So come on we've got to find our Own way out this shipwreck on an ocean of doubt Take the wheel but you cannot steer You can see it but it isn't real Buried under a thousand tons Crushed by the weight of love It can't be what you thought It can't be what you saw Still you fight for what was never lost It's gonna happen when you know it's not No more tragic endings I'm done trying to hide the holes Seal my flood defenses The storm is raging but I feel your love So come on We've got to find our own way Out this shipwreck on an ocean of doubt
