i'm blind and i'm sinking
in the waves
the world's coming to an end
there's nothing to save
i just want you here
to be with me
when the ground disappears
out from under the sea
the water's so cold
can't stop my hands from shaking
i just want to fall asleep in your arms
and never awaken
i'll just lay right here
and i won't make a sound
i'll silently shiver
curled up on the ground
i'll give you my jacket
if you'll hold me close
we can lay here embracing
and wash away with the coast
a man to the end
but scared as a child
as the waves crash about
reckless and wild
you and i know
when to run and to hide
and when to give up
and flow in with the tide
as the waves pass us by
above and below
the lights cast on the water
a beautiful glow
we both look up at the surface
from under the sea
and my tears add to the ocean
as your last breath escapes thee
