Her eyes are closed now
That final breath is near
She lets go of my hand
And i fall into a sea of tears

In search for the trail that we were both riding
Lost sometime ago
Now i'm stranded on the mountain's edge
And there's only one way back

Down and down i go
Into the ground where the bad seeds are sown
Take root and pull me further in

Long and long and longer it takes
Good luck's gone and there's no more breaks
Just the ground beneath that shakes and gives way

Swallowed up whole
There ain't much now i can pull
No stuntman surprises or houdini-like disguises
For death defying escape

Avoid the tap on the shoulder
From that one with the long black cape

Just to see those eyes of hers shine
Is worth any sum or length of time
That would fill that space
Where her love once flowed

But the more i resist
The further and further i drift
Get swept out in the riptide
Where my part of me wants
To lie 'neath the waves of sorrow and tears

Sink to the bottom and linger there the rest of my years
Walk among the mossy bones
Of my fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers
Feel their blood flow away, send the soul its way
