Gordon Downie - Whispers Of The Waves lyrics

I am the deck, you are the sea...* I am the light on the water, and you are moving underneath I am the rail, you are the sea... I don't know what I'm even looking at Don't know what's even happening... Higher than the moon, deeper than the seas All above the truth, people of the keys Enemies remorse Heroes savagery Infinitely dark, zero gravity Welcome your despair, but develop hope Sharpen up your blade, cut the devils throat Look it in the eye, wonder what it is Fire in the sky, and on the water wind Turning of the tides, learning of the why's Burning of the eyes, yearning of the cries Save the second five, drifters and the slaves Listen to the rain, whispers of the waves Calling of the stars, elegant eclipse Voices of the ghosts, skeletons of ships Digging deeper down, crawling out above Shifting of the sands, falling out of love It doesn't take much... It doesn't take much... To ruin a moment like this... Feed me your agonies, your riches and voices Trespa** against me, but offer me choices Stronger than fire, the cancer is slow Your tears are like mine But the answer is no Feed me your agonies, your riches and voices Trespa** against me, but offer me choices Stronger than fire, the cancer is slow Your tears are like mine But the answer is no Nothingness of days, preachers of the sleep Diamonds on the surface, creatures of the deep Forbidden is the truth, permission to believe Reaching out for hope, fishermen and thieves Ruining the future, dealing with the past Deeper than the floor, ceiling made of gla** Merciless and cold, miserable and moved Blind onto the eye, invisible and blue Cursing at the sun, yielded my advice Open to the air, shielded by the ice All we do is wait, used to do it all Rhythm of your blood, music through a wall Lovers without hope, strangers without things Bodies without spirits, angels without wings Start of something else, finality of breath Origin of life, and melody of d**h They curse your name... (they curse my name, burst into flame) Whisper please, please, please (whispering their pleas, different degrees) People can be so mean... They call you the drowning machine I am the school... (screws that turn, only till it burns) You are the sea... (yes I am the sea, lesson in the key) I don't know if its me moving through you, or you through me I am the bridge... (bridges and spillways, all ablaze) You are the sea... (yes I am the sea, lesson in the key) I am taking on water, and you just kept on battering me Feed me your agonies, your riches and voices Trespa** against me, but offer me choices Stronger than fire, the cancer is slow Your tears are like mine But the answer is no They curse your name... Whisper please, please, please People can be so mean... They call you the drowning machine
