Khemmis - Above the Water lyrics

When I was younger, I caught a glimpse of fate Above the water, flickering So lonely it seemed, so fragile was its beam In stormy waters, threatening Churning tides keep me awake While I'm still asleep Can't take my eye off the failing light That floats upon the sea But I won't die, it isn't my time Here is a part of me Up on the deck, 'neath the failing light Sinking into the sea There in the darkness, I felt it was too late I saw my father swept away Just like my lover, who slipped beneath the sheets Into the waters, rippling Under the light that keeps me awake Call out to the sea That takes me in and hold me tight But I cannot breathe If the fates align, it isn't my time More than a part of me Under the deck, submerged in the night Carried away in the stream silently
