lyrics

Dark tides rising with the moon
An empty shoreline and a desolate coast
A single set of footprints
Tracing them through the sand alone

It's like a cold dream that I've had before
A strangely familiar place
Recurring images of your face

Adrift, trapped inside this current
The ocean's grip pulling me further
Away from where I want to be
The harder I swim, the deeper I sink

At the bottom I see your face again
I reach out to touch it
But the vision fades away
Returning pain slowly setting
The weight of loss crushing me

A neverending pain that can't be washed away
Like salt in my veins
I'm sinking everyday, drifting far away
I can't be saved
Show me the light of day
Show me the light of day

The air escapes my lungs
Submerged beneath the waves
And now I'm finally home
I'm finally home
I see your light again
I feel your warmth upon my skin

I want to stay here inside this moment forever

Oh, trapped inside this current
The ocean's grip pulling me further
Away from where I want to be
The harder I swim, the deeper I sink

The ending tide swallow me and spits me out
I find myself washed ashore
The sun beating down on my back

Wake in a daze, crawling through the sand
My legs are weak as I try to stand
It's too much to carry on
You were the fire and I'll carry the flame
Its too much to carry on
You were the fire and I'll carry the flame

This type of modern metalcore is usually not my cup of tea. Somehow, Allt knows to hit home with these tracks. The electronic flourishes really are the cherry on the cake. dcdirkzwager
