lyrics

The diver`s in a tavern
Can't comprehend it all just ended


Indiscriminate and taking spirit by force,
Pillaging like an ancient militia
The weight of his compromised conduct
Insufferable bone crushing torture


The city opens up before him
Just like she did on the sand
Draining the night away by himself
Stirring emotions in a cup


Empty streets he sees (just drink the night away)
In a lifeless place he sits (the weight of his own cup)


She didn`t fight until they all just had enough

You plundered! It was all calculated!



Assemble the search, turn every stone and check the rooftops
Between his fangs still left some fragments of her headscarf
Scour the forest! Scour the beaches! Her ghost still wanders over there perhaps by mistake. Take? You want some more?


Her breath still fluttering through his K-9 sniffer
Ignite the lighthouse and dust off the binoculars
It was an unsettling sight when the sea foam wetted her hair
Her headscarf did hover on the waves of her belly


Get the scent! Get the scent!
Find her!


There! There! A flock a shadows in sight
Navigate to the stars and on a windows ledge she stands

Please hold on! Don’t let go!
I can`t help you forget!


He vomits regret and she`s glaring to the ground
Soul in pieces, Wait; let me join you up there!
Why did the Diver cross the road?
To get to the other side but an eighteen-wheeler got him first and glowed his body firmly to the roadway.
Broken window, shattered eyes


….It will pass like a daydream, Let it come.


Heading towards the sands by herself
Just like he did on that day
Inebriant kept in her brassiere
Stroll along the waves


The water opens up before her
Cascading onto her under gown
In empty brine she floats (just drink the day away)
A lifeless shoreline left (the length of perseverance)


She doesn’t fight the whitecaps, carry her flesh and bones deep into the beautiful briny sea, so far.


Indiscriminate and taking spirit by force
Pillaging like an ancient militia
The weight of his compromised conduct
Insufferable bone crushing torture.
