lyrics

I walked along the ocean
A stranger to myself
The water was so boundless
Into it I fell
Oh, why must I fight
I should let the tide take me tonight
Take me tonight

I never knew my face
My skin never shed
I was a moth in lamplight
Trapped and misled
But who am I now?
Will I breathe the air or will I drown?
Or will I drown?

Upon the sands I crawled
Stared to the moon
I screamed into my palms
And I broke from my cocoon
Oh, where will I go?
To the glowing arms of the one I love
Of the one I love

You see I am an alien
Dripping from the waves
An outsider of conquest
Shattered by his rage
But who calls my name
In the deepest night, in the coldest rain
