lyrics

It’s rooted too deep
It’s too much lost sleep
To sink beneath the surface,
can’t concentrate; no focus
No prospect of reprieve,
just gazing out to sea
just gazing out to sea

With vows of aid you healed
With vows of love you bound
With vows of peace, convinced
Only purity

Assured of family
Assured of fulfillment
Only faith to prove
A saviour guaranteed

It's too hard to breathe
It's too late to leave
but fade in isolation
benign incarceration
no prospect of relief
infected refugees
just waving helplessly

Only faith to prove
Only faith to prove

Trust in the sea to cleanse
Wading in, holding hands
last hint of warmth in the wind, a dying sun
a glance behind, the urge to carry on

Scrambling feet torn from the sand
fight to hold. desperate fingers, grasping hands
too numb to grip, relinquish to the tide, to fate
there’s no redemption here, abandoned rocks, no-one waits

Choke on relentless waves,
bitter with salt.
