I dug by hand, a haven that hid me well,
Beneath the sand,
The white windy waves washed in,
But I stayed dry,
The great breakers broke again,
'Cause I'm on and off inside.
And then, when the empress run aground,
And my eyes turned blue and green,
I heard a gorgeous sound,
And that's when it became a dream,
When the sky fell in,
When the hurricanes came for me,
I could finally crash again,
And that's how I became the sea.
I wrenched the engines off,
And dragged them down,
The depths turned the iron soft,
As they swiftly drowned,
And I brought the ocean side,
To its rusty knees,
As I felt the even tide,
Deep in my shallow dreams.
And then, when the empress run aground,
And my eyes turned blue and green,
I heard a gorgeous sound,
And that's when it became a dream,
When the sky fell in,
When the hurricanes came for me,
I could finally crash again,
And that's how I became the sea.
(When the sky fell in),
When the sky fell in,
(When the sky fell in),
When the hurricanes came for me,
I could finally crash again,
And that's how I became the sea,
That's how I became the sea,
That's how I became the sea
June was the lobster shell, I dug by hand, a haven that hid me well, Beneath the sand, The white windy waves washed in, But I stayed dry, The great breakers broke again, 'Cause I'm on and off inside. And then, when the empress run aground, And my eyes turned blue and green, I heard a gorgeous sound, And that's when it became a dream, When the sky fell in, When the hurricanes came for me, I could finally crash again, And that's how I became the sea. I wrenched the engines off, And dragged them down, The depths turned the iron soft, As they swiftly drowned, And I brought the ocean side, To its rusty knees, As I felt the even tide, Deep in my shallow dreams. And then, when the empress run aground, And my eyes turned blue and green, I heard a gorgeous sound, And that's when it became a dream, When the sky fell in, When the hurricanes came for me, I could finally crash again, And that's how I became the sea. (When the sky fell in), When the sky fell in, (When the sky fell in), When the hurricanes came for me, I could finally crash again, And that's how I became the sea, That's how I became the sea, That's how I became the sea Explain Request ×
