lyrics

the sun set so quickly
to a warm wet horizon
and laid down its body
to be swallowed up sweet
by an unholy hole in the sea

we swam out to save it
with hope in our hearts
but realized all too quickly
its set for the depths
just beyond the realms of our reach

and if in water we’d waded
the way autumn faded
then perhaps in the slim chance
of finding that light
in the depths of the deepest
of parts in our hearts
we could have it
and hold it
and love it
till morning light comes

you and I darling
are silver-spined star fish
who cling to the mountains
of monstrous creatures
that delve through the depths
and beneath

we live in a world
of dance and fine dining
while involuntarily giving ourselves
to the wondrous world of the sea

the sun sets again
but this time much deeper
and darker than ever
as it slips from our eyelids
and down through the floor boards
to where all our loved ones sleep
tossing and turning
and waiting for us to arrive
