"The Sea" lyrics

"The Sea"

They say she is so strong and brave
Flexing out with every wave
Many ancient sailors graves
The sea will save them all

And what a day for us to swim
Thunderous arms are closing in
They're hugging us like kith and kin
Pull us in below

And I was wondering why
Why should we float
When you can swallow the sky
When you can swallow gray boats

They say the moon controls the sea
Hand in hand in harmony
Maybe that's like you and me
Eternally to be

And you will crash against the land
Turning rocks into the sand
We'll do it like we always planned
Just hand in hand, alone

And I was wondering why
Why should we flow
When you can swallow the sky
And you can swallow gray boats
