Till the Sea Swallows Us Whole

As life consumes Grief renews Wide and deep is the stream we row down Worn the creaking oar in our hands Great the burden we drag behind us Frail the one at the end of his rope All we see are the bygone days drifting Further away, despite us resisting To accept there is nothing we hold as dear As everything we are doomed to grieve And we will drown if we don't Soon let go of that anchor of hope We tend to hold on to For ruthless is the wind Wayward the waves it brings Here we shall float in a state of decay Till the sea swallows us whole As life consumes Grief renews For better or worse All we see is the light of day fading Slowly away, despite us refusing To acknowledge there's much unsaid, undone As brief is the time under the sun And we will drown if we don't Soon let go of that anchor of hope We tend to hold on to For ruthless is the wind Wayward the waves it brings Here we shall float in a state of decay Till the sea swallows us whole Here we shall float in a state of decay Till the sea swallows us whole (Swallows us whole)
