Face to the sun
No time to turn and run
Prey to the sea
The waves so violent gleam
Nothing in this world could dream
Such a serenade would set us free
Plague from the tides
Desolations rising high
Drifting debris
In depths, your fortunes cease
No one in this world perceived
Death with devastating majesty
Raging unholy waters take me
A promised enemy
Bracing unholy waters cleanse me
An honest agony
As sickness comes for me
Understand this dire fate
Just time we’ve got to face, until we fade
As nature comes for me
Understanding higher state
The hours we’re going to face, until that day
Raging unholy waters take me
A promised enemy
Bracing unholy waters cleanse me
An honest agony
Nature comes for me
Nature comforts me
