This horizon ties your hands
Pray for mercy as you sink below
Through the thunder, until the rain falls, we're alone
Look at the way she stares
You want to make her suffer
Bury your face in sand
Keep it smothered
Hurry, avert your eyes and hold them still
Dig deep your lines
Stop your breathing
No words, only sound
Slow steps
Heed no one
No heat, only shrouds
The elders sway
The cowards fall
They couldn't find a way
No hope or fear of floating
No one for you to know
They couldn't find a way
Through the thunder, until the rain falls, we're alone
Through the sandstorm, until the soil floods we're as bone
I'm an island
I built my wall's stone too tall
Wait upon your shore
Maybe there sails an escape for you
So you race to the end, and then you hurtle towards another one
So you pray for the wind
Then you race to the end
I'm through counting
