Where The Sky Meets The Water

from Timepieces and Their Keepers by For Blind Eyes Only

/

about

Sometimes when you destroy everything, time is all that can help you.

lyrics

These stormy skies
And ocean blue
It was the waves
That tore me from you

I'm on my own

I can't conquer these waves
And the depth of the ocean grew
So I need them, I need them
To bring me back to you

I'm on my own
I'm on my own

Where the sky meets the water
That's where you'll find me
Swimming slowly sinking
Waiting for you
Where the sky meets the water
I'll be buried at sea
Maybe, these waves will bring you back to me

When the sky meets the water
Then I'll learn to swim
Until then I'll count my breaths like bittersweet blessings
And I shall not rest until a piece of me is no longer missing

Where the sky meets the water
That's where you'll find me
Swimming slowly sinking
Waiting for you

I'm a sailor of these open waters
Stranded with no crew
This shipwrecked heart
These blackened bones
The tide's too low
To come home to you

I'm all alone

Where the sky meets the water
That's where you'll find me
Swimming slowly sinking
Waiting for you
Where the sky meets the water
I'll be buried at sea
Maybe, these waves will bring you back to me

When the sky meets the water
Then I'll learn to swim
Until then I'll count my breaths like bittersweet blessings
And I shall not rest until a piece of me is no longer missing

Where the sky meets the water
That's where you'll find me
Swimming slowly sinking
Waiting for you

Where the sky meets the water
That's where you'll find me
Swimming slowly sinking
Waiting for you
Where the sky meets the water
I'll be buried at sea
Drifting, floating endlessly
On this horizon
