on the bright day we all set sail
the sea was as clear as glass. gentle
running so smooth and fast. like a silk banner in the sun
spiniker pointed to the sky
all of our sails unfurled. what is beneath the sea
what is it you can't hold
safe in the harbor's arms
what is it you don't know?
all of that day we sailed so far
far as our eyes could see the way
all of the world was kind. under our hull
swimming his ancient path of blue
where once we had all belonged. everything dying lives
nothing will last for long
everything else is lies. suddenly then the wind grew cold
and the dark clouds rolled in. billowing sails began to tear
driven against the wind. hard in our face the rain came on
fierce as the devil's storm
down on our knees we fought to pray
our hopes were born. kill and be killed
if you choose life to live
everything comes to you. why we were spared we'll never know
but the sun shone again. all the wind died as fast as snow
the water was calm again. nothing would ever be the same
no matter where we might sail
if you can change you fear to faith
you can not ever fail. what is beneath the sea
what is it you can't hold
safe in the harbor's arms
what is it you don't know?
