Lyrics

I bear the anchor's weight
Manacles pulling me under
Open palms met with foul deluge
Dragged away, yet the river compels you
Downpour of an acid rain
Carried bodies to their homes again
Hollowed carcasses the path now erodes
Dip your hands and you sell your soul

Fates are carved in minds, no place or time
The depths of your sins conceal the light
Dead flooded pines
Gray, waning skies

All that I see are withered trees
Close shut the door and lost the key

Riptide break my bones
Bodies line the coast
Skin decayed with brine
Weak encumbered spines

I gave the anchors weight
Ties that bind have me crossing the threshold
Become one with the undertow
Dredge may come, but I'm drowning slow
Locked in gaze with the maw of demise
Lungs collapse as the salt strains my eyes
Crumbled walls standing so tall
Swept away by the ocean's call

The thoughts that we keep, they slept in shrouds
Mind, body and soul kept under clouds
Home is in our bones
I met my God when my eyes were closed

Awaken

Riptide break my bones
Bodies line the coast
Skin decayed with brine
Weak encumbered spines

Riptide break my bones
Bodies line the coast
Skin decayed with brine
Weak encumbered spines
