The Deep

A presence on the sea tonight
I see it in the water
I feel it in the undertow
In the shadow that I cast
Where the moonlight is dancing
In the dark disturbances
There is something rising up
From the deep

As the ocean comes ashore
I make a wall between us
Words of sand to hide behind
To keep my soul unseen
No matter where I lay them
All these words will wash away
There is something rising up
From the deep

There are voices in the wind
They are offers to begin again
Now I'm scared to hear that sound
If I follow, will I drown?
But I stand still and listen
And I cannot turn away
There is something rising up
From the deep

Let my soul sink in the sea
Let it wash all over me
Let it rise up from the deep
From the deep inside
There's nowhere left to hide
From the deep inside
