Lyrics

The Tides

Pull

Meet, meet me beyond the emptiness

And only then will you see

All that you have

All that you have in this world

Is all that you need

So release me into the vast unknown

For I have been reborn

Arise in tune with the tides

You wait for them to fall

On your balance, your life

And through the serpentines

You reach into the deep

And you pull

Drift and you tow

With only the moon's light to guide you

Will you please

Release me into the vast unknown

For I have been reborn

Arisen in tune with the tides

You wait for them to fall on your balance, your life

And through the serpentines

You reach into the deep

And pull and release

Be it on high, relentless

Or down in the shallows

You're senseless

Release me into the vast unknown

For I have been reborn

Arise in tune with the tides

You wait for them to fall

On your balance, your life

And through the serpentines

You reach into the deep

You pull and release

You drift and you tow

You reaped when you knew

There was nothing to sow

So welcome to a hell of an existence

If you think you can predict it

Well you fool and you fake

Like it's all been arranged

And you wax and you wane
