An iron sun sinks
Leaving this bay
Behind bridges of silence
Below saints
A creature of dry land
A gale around me
The son of a searcher
He's never seen the sea
Nurseling beauty
How far can you crawl
God knows I love you
You are an original
I came without reason
So bitter, so free
You were born by the river
But you've never seen the sea
I stood at your tombstone
I felt alive
A vision between us
A sun in the sky
I weighed up your madness
In scales of degree
You lived your whole life
But you never saw the sea
You never saw the sea
Leaving this bay
Behind bridges of silence
Below saints
A creature of dry land
A gale around me
The son of a searcher
He's never seen the sea
Nurseling beauty
How far can you crawl
God knows I love you
You are an original
I came without reason
So bitter, so free
You were born by the river
But you've never seen the sea
I stood at your tombstone
I felt alive
A vision between us
A sun in the sky
I weighed up your madness
In scales of degree
You lived your whole life
But you never saw the sea
You never saw the sea
