Alone With The Sea

Once there was an old ocean

Where anyone who saw it

Grew old with the sea

So we were terrified of water

And of all the sons and daughters

No one dared to see

On the banks of the coastline

I tracked a bleeding loved one

His blood was mingling

And the saltiest of waters

'Cause apparently they faltered

Never again to be seen

So I cry, I tried

I cried, I scry

This old warship has wounds and

It won't sail for nothin'

An old sailor said to me

And I was foolish not to listen

And paid such close conscription

At all the lies I believed

"But if you lend me some more labor

And put your name on paper

We just might catch a breeze"

I know now he was not a captain

And because of all my actions

I grow alone with the sea

I have strangely become immune

To the thought of seeing you

And the smell of cheap perfume

With all the liquor I've consumed

There's no more beauty in this world

There's no more beauty in this world

Because I've strangely become immune

To the thought of seeing you

And the smell of cheap perfume

With all the liquor I've consumed

There's no more beauty in this

There's no more beauty in this

There's no more beauty in this world

Because I've strangely become immune

To the thought of seeing you

And the smell of cheap perfume

Is just a ring around the moon

There's no more beauty in this

There's no more beauty in this

There's no more beauty in this world

I try, I cried

I tried, I scry

There's no more beauty in this

There's no more beauty in this

There's no more beauty in this world
