Stranded

I was never promised it'd be easy
But why'd it have to be so damn hard
These were gonna be the glory days
Don't know what happened to get me this far
Where did the time go
When did I veer this far off course
I'm not saying goodbye
Oh, I'll meet you in the next life
I'm not saying goodbye
Even if I'm stranded on this isle alone
I'll wade into the waves if I must
See if the water gets rough
Should I end up washed ashore
I'll dive in again, again, again
I was never promised calmer waters
But I'm still surprised as the wind howls
A summer storm is brewing on the ocean
It's dive deep or get swept away now
I've got the courage to go
I'll remember the ones that I've known
I'm not saying goodbye
Oh, I'll meet you in the next life
I'm not saying goodbye
Even if I'm stranded on this isle alone
I'll wade into the waves if I must
See if the water gets rough
Should I end up washed ashore
I'll dive in again, again, again

Sea Glass

I hate it when you apologize
'Cause I know I owe you the "I'm sorry"
I hold so tight I forget it can break
I miss you after our goodbyes
But I don't know what to say when I see you
A sobering quiet while I wait
(Ooh, while I wait)
...
We built cities together
I don't want them to crumble apart
We've written stories together
The ink stained on my heart
You deserve the world
And sometimes, all I am is the empty sea
But I thank Poseidon every day that you see something in me
We laughed and cried when we were kids
It's changed a lot, but I still call you family
A bond so strong it'll never break
Nothing lasts forever
But that might not be such a bad thing
I'm proud of the paths we chose to take
(Oh, we chose to take, we chose)
We built cities together
I don't want them to crumble apart
We've written stories together
The ink stained on my heart
You deserve the world
And sometimes, all I am is the empty sea
But I thank Poseidon every day that you see something in me

High Tide
04:22
|

It's strange how after we're lost, we know how to find our way home
Can't blame the seasons for changing
We all get used to doing what we're told
Break the cycle or love your ways
But choose to swim against the waves
Take the time to feel the change
But wake up from what mustn't be the same
The high tide rolls in while I'm hyper-focused
On what I know I can create
Parts of my world crumble, while others skim the surface
With the skies that they can scrape
They can scrape
Sunlight burns
And sunlight gives the summer worth
Overwhelmed
And restless yet for more to unearth
Let the waves break over me
Let the waves break over me
Let the waves break over me
The high tide rolls in while I'm hyper-focused
On what I know I can create
Parts of my world crumble, while others skim the surface
With the skies that they can scrape
The high tide rolls in while I'm firing on all of my cylinders,
I'm burnt out
Starting to have higher standards
Take nothing less than perfect
I wouldn't have it any other way
Any other way

Memories In A Box
05:13
|

Hold on, slow down
It's all going too fast
Gotta sort through what I have
(I'll take it with me)
Basement lights blink
Just as they always have
Maybe they always will, woah
(I guess I'll never know)
Remember where we're from
And remember where we're headed
Rest those tired eyes my love
Your memories are in a box for safekeeping
Should we see the sun rise
I'll follow you to where you're going
Don't know how to deal
With what's thrown at me
I guess I'll write a song
(It's all I know)
Act like it's all fine
Someone has to
And you're going through enough, woah
I've leaned on you before
Please, I'm trying to let you lean on me
Rest those tired eyes my love
Your memories are in a box for safekeeping
Should we see the sun rise
I'll follow you to where you're going
Rest those tired eyes my love
Your memories are in a box for safekeeping
Should we see the sun rise
I'll follow you to where you're going

Dark Refuge
04:16
|

You are poison in the water
Washing over me
You have sunken our vessel
Tainting memories
Oh, I will seek out what I need now
A safe place to hide
Oh, I will search through where I sleep now
On the ocean floor
(I left you for your own good, your own good)
(Too dark for me to find you, to find you)
I left you for your own good
Nothing lost the ocean should be
Too dark for me to find you
Ooh, the abyss makes refuge
Ooh, the abyss makes refuge
You are ice in my lungs
Taking shorter breaths
You devise your perfect plans
To make the cold sting more
I left you for your own good
Nothing lost the ocean should be
Too dark for me to find you
Ooh, the abyss makes refuge
I refuse to do what you would
I'll go on to carve a new
Beginning for me without you
Ooh, the abyss takes perfect hold

Depth
04:09

Repeat, repeat the same days, the same mistakes, and the same vices
Give in to the thrall
(The thrall)
Delete, delete anything that makes me question my choices
‘Til I'm nothing at all
(At all)
I'm left to wonder
Have I lost myself
My nature asunder
Is there any depth
I act on instinct
Animal intent
Is my character still distinct
Is there any
Depth
I'm left to wonder
Have I lost myself
My nature asunder
Is there any depth
I act on instinct
Animal intent
Is my character still distinct
Is there any
Is there any
Depth

Leviathan

In the dark
It’s there in the dark
In the dark
Teach me to swallow the ocean whole
Tell me why your hunger grows
You're there in the dark
Dark muse in my art
In the dark
(Leviathan)
Teach me to swallow the ocean whole
Tell me why your hunger grows
You're there in the dark
Dark muse in my art
In the dark

Mariana

It’s not a place that’s familiar
But it’s better than drowning
Let me escape, going deeper
Now it’s all or nothing
It’s the unknown that’s alluring
Be it sainthood or sinning
Hold your breath for me, I’m coming down, coming down, coming down
Mariana
I'm in the danger zone
Getting sick of the devil I know
Mariana
Your quiet company
Thinking maybe it’s better beneath
(Time to find out if there’s any depth)
(Time to find out what’s below hell)
I freely let you take me, Mariana
Let the world devour where I’ve come from
Send my regards to the rescue crew
I can see your monsters, Mariana
They look miles better than the others
And it seems they like me too
I’ll tell you when to stop, when to stop, oh
For now just let me fall, let me fall, let go
I freely let you take me, Mariana
Upward means nothing to me now
Mariana
I'm in the danger zone
Getting sick of the devil I know
Mariana
Your quiet company
Thinking maybe it’s better beneath

Up There
06:13
|

I’ve seen it to the end
Don’t let me leave you, no
I can’t help but think i might
(Losing control over what i do)
But you tell me not to fret
I wanna believe you, oh
I promise I’ll be alright
(I swear I’ll do it if only for you)
I want to be up there
Where the cypress trees and the iris flowers
Feel the wind on their leaves
I want to be somewhere
Where the tide is low and the grass is green
Do you think I could find this place with you
(Standing in the sun brighter skies with you)
(Leave the ocean behind when I'm with you)
I've sunk below the tide
I keep the abyss with me now
Help me merge dark and light
(Losing myself until i found you)
But you've pulled me to the other side
Helping to parse what I've found
There's meaning in every sky
(Days go by but I come back to you)
I want to be up there
Where the cypress trees and the iris flowers
Feel the wind on their leaves
I want to be somewhere
Where the tide is low and the grass is green
Do you think I could find this place with you
Take me up
Take me up, up
Take me up
Maybe I’ll see up there
In a fleeting dream not too far from now
Or maybe it’s even real
Something will change in me
I won’t feel alone when I’m out at sea
I know the sky waits for me
Something will change in me
Something will change
Something will change
