[C#m]
Some days we're ripped and torn away [A] from the shores [F#] and tossed to a watery [B] grave.
Set adrift in the depths of the drink in the hands of the [C#m] gods we curse.
We call for help when the ones around
[A] shut down, bleeding thoughts never [E] make a [B] sound.
Set adrift in the depths of the dark in the heart of the [C#m] sea where we wish.
[A] I feel [B] it in my bones when the [C#m] storm is cold.
[A] Then [B] I wait for the rain and the [C#m] wind to blow.
[E] Dark [B] colors fill the [C#m] sky I'm strengthened [E] and feeling so alive.
Eyes closed tight, [C#m] my ears [B] open for the voice.
[C#m] [B]
[A] [B]
[C#m] We all carry the truth we [B] love.
Think of home when the waves and the [E] gold get tough.
Hold our breath and go down with the wish of just one last [C#m] kiss to last.
[A] I [B] feel it in my bones when the [C#m] storm is cold.
[A] Then I wait for the [B] rain and the [C#m] wind to blow.
[A] [B] Dark colors fill the [C#m] sky I'm strengthened and feeling [A] so [E] alive.
Eyes closed tight, my ears [B] open for the voice.
[E] Eyes [B] closed tight, my ears [C#m] open for the voice.
