and i listen, enchanted, to the tune of the living depths
the wonder caused by the writhing melody falls on my ears
and i feel at peace as i am filled with the secrets of the deep
the natural beauty is unmatched in man or beast, the long lost
that lie eternally in its depths are truly blessed, for the
supposed hell they have to endure is one of heavenly joy
as they dance to the immortal song that resides in their hearts
i lie on the banks of the raging ocean: i look to the horizen
and hear the chords being struck by the phantom band of the sea
it draws me in, ensnares me in a trance, and i long to be there
forever and a day is not long enough to appreciate the true wonder
but i am rejected, i am not worthy to succumb to its beauty
i am spurned, left with the taste of the death i can never have
as much as i dream, the song is changing, the tune is bitter
and life seems to point towards nothing but a grey doom
now my time has come, the sea is a distant memory to me now
but as my senses fade for the final time, i hear a tune
a solitary tune in the abyss, to reawaken dark secrets in me
i am judged, found worthy, and dance among the souls of the sea
