Behind the rising tides I see them coming
Long I've known their coming for the price laid on my soul
Underneath the skies I hear the reddened waves come down
To wash away the bloody shores I roam
They're bringing in the waves I've always hoped

No escape, and I've no will to try
I've counted many days beyond my finest hour
I can't say that I've no will tonight
To take as many with me to the skies

Above the starry nights she's watching me again I know
Eyes to fill the night I stand alone
From a desert island I embrace the lonely wind
Sure to lift my heart above these shores
Reach into the night and take what's yours
