"The Wake" lyrics

"The Wake"

Once I was at peace in this destruction
A void I was alright with this unknown
I used to walk the bottom of the ocean
But now I'm on the shore
See a wake was left in place and now no memories remain
No sense of shame appeared upon our flesh
Ah, human aspiration tells our story
And we're still mourning, ah we're still mourning
Counting every last single breath

Hey you, get a hold of yourself
Don't let anybody ever let you not be yourself
hey sister, take care of yourself
Don't let anybody ever let you not be yourself

And we're still mourning
We're still mourning, counting every last single
Counting every last single breath
