LYRICS:
In the end, lack of wind, combined with falling tide and rising waves. Did us in, and just when, the gods were on their way to intervene.
And when they come, they come on wings of doves and say the kind of things like: "Love will save you from the pain you've known!" And when they go, they leave forlorn, the things that had once made them strong, abandoned them like a child out in the cold.
But who's to say they'd come that way? And who's to say they'd come or even care? And who's to know if a life down below, wouldn't suit us more than a life in open air?
Because when we dream it's blue and green, with silver lines etched in between, and everything's a painting to be framed. And when we wake the dream's escaped the colors all just bleed to gray, and nothing's left to move us but the train.
In the end, for all we planned, we wound up floating lost out on the sea. And all our friends would bow their heads, and vow to keep in their memories.
Because if we fall or if we fly, the time that we spend wondering why is nothing to the time still in our hands. And if I thrive or if I die, I want you all to know I tried--I tried my best to make you understand.
