I saw you in the stars
And in their reflections
In the waves.

I keep wishing the words to flow
But nothings working anymore.

She calls me home
And I am sinking,
I am sinking.
Deeper deeper.
Til I am with her.

I saw the last sunset
The fires burned upon the water
And I knew my time was up.
I jumped in the sea
There was nothing left of me.

The ocean has been changing
Ever since I started sailing
On it’s wondrous waves.
When I look out over the vast blackness
I no longer see the beauty in it.

No, no longer.

Now there is only terror.
Terror at my command.

Staying awake
To the sound of your singing

So close,
Like the whispers of the wind
You softly breathe your words
Far more beautiful

Than any of my own.

Oh Captain,
I’ve been sailing
On the course you charted
Days before you were stolen.

Oh Captain,
I’ve been drowning
I’m trying to be strong.
But nothing feels worth it.

Please, come back.

I’d take your place in heaven,
But Lord knows I’d never make it
Past Peter and those Pearly Gates.

If anything, the Devil’s got a place for me
In his fiery home.

But chances are there’s nothing out there,
Past the Sky, Sea, or Land.

That’s why I never hear your voice.
