lyrics

Verses:

The sea takes me where it will
Changeful and demanding
The hope behind me still

Behind me still

The waves come on and on
Turning and returning
To wreck me by the dawn

By the dawn

What a mortal weight to know
The end before it comes
To die undreamed of far below

Far below

I spill into the raging sea
Knowing and unknowing
What this world can never be

Never be

Chorus:

In spite of name and honor
No matter how well known

The silence of the deep
Comes to each of us alone

Us alone

Verses:

No need now to pretend
Every life’s a lesson
Let my story be its end

Be its end

There’s something after this
A world-to-come of dreams
Called up from the abyss

The abyss

Chorus:

The waves overrun the stars
My rest, far off and near

The sea holds one last secret
If only I could hear

Outro:

All hours clapped together
A reckoning of weather
In thunder, foam and spray
Your wake the Milky Way

Breaking and unbroken
Like a wave upon the land

It’s a wave
A black wave
A black wave

Oh, the day will come
When we don’t see the sun
