lyrics

Be still and weave the waves
Thread them in a tender motion
Reach out and taste the tide
Float upon a deep emotion
This stormy sea must sleep
Together we can calm the ocean

Be still, and wait with me
Until the horizon's woken
Reach out, inhale this breeze
Until the charm is broken
This stormy sea must sleep
Together we can calm the ocean


Your raging fear will stir a storm
A sky of salt is falling
Raise the anchor, and we'll steer
Towards a silent calling

We'll sail inside a single shell
A sanctuary, a shelter
A calm chorale, a coral cave
A buried tomb to lay your grave
Forgive


Memories swirl
A soul submerged
I can't break through
Fight the fear as it's filling my lungs
There's no way up
Just sinking
Crash to catch one breath
Another splash to scratch the surface
The terror
Water deafened death
There's no way back for the captive here
The capsized sees memories float his lifeless boat
There are two firm hands around my throat
And no hope
Beneath the house I'll stir a storm
Whipping up waves to break my fall
And face down
I watch him drown
In this is whirlpool prison where...


Be still and hold your breath
