It's the coast of a sea from where she is From where in her eyes I'm a sinking ship Being held hostage by an ending ocean The albatross flies lowly In her eyelids As witness of my stormy demise
It's the edge of the world where she is Where she wonders at broken walls As bitter boarders and lines on her palm The blood that forms a nation In her lonely mind As empty cities and broken hearts
It's night and day from where she is From where in her dreams the day ends slowly The sun hangs lowly casting shadows And the only moon in view Whispers haunting reminders about when the day was new
