The ocean is wide
The desert is deep
The pull of the tide
The sand that creeps
Swim from the shore
Sink in the dunes
Tread water no more
And bury the ruins
Can you see in the dark?
Can you stay in the black?
Are there trees on the ark?
Will we find what we lack?
Exhaustion takes hold
The sun's massive weight
It's time to be bold
Refuse this fate
It swallows you up
You drop to your knees
And finally give up
No begging, no pleas
Can you see in the dark?
Can you stay in the black?
Are there trees on the ark?
Will we find what we lack?
One final breath
Vultures overhead
No fear of death
For the lovers of the dead
Lungs fill with ocean
Heart beats no more
Ceasing all motion
As you fall on the shore
Can you see in the dark?
Can you stay in the black?
Are there trees on the ark?
Will we find what we lack?
