"Prologue" lyrics
Shayfer James & Kate Douglas Lyrics
"Prologue"
Listen, listen to the sea
Feel the water at your feet
Listen, listen to the sea
Feel the water at your feet
This is how the tide behaves
The water crests and sinks away
We're swept along an open sea
And we are drifting endlessly
The tide will rise, the tide will fall
And in the end, it takes us all
We try again to tell the story
Good and evil, hell and glory
Listen, listen to the sea
Feel the water at your feet
Listen, listen to the sea
Feel the water at your feet
Cities built will fall to flood
And we will scrape them from the mud
The victors write our history
By conjuring the enemy
We're at the mercy of the swell
It beckons us and bids farewell
We build a cradle from our grave
And feel it rock, with every wave
Ebb and flow
The buildings go
The cities go
Ebb and flow
The kingdoms go
The empires go
Ebb and flow
The reasons go
The seasons go
Ebb and flow
The villains go
The heroes go

Chained to their jobs like hounds
They work and sleep and work again
In the darkest nights they howl

To everyone following
No man should stand to...
Sparkbird - "Silent Film" I am living in the eye of the storm
Winded and unwound
Down on the floor
Trying to find the door

Could wave it...
Cosmo Sheldrake - "Axolotl" Sailing seas
In bathtubs green
To grimy shores
Waging war
To wade in fours
And sway off course
Scream and shout
Trickle down and out
I'll build a home at sea
Squeeze a right hand foot
Into a left...
