Liquid Slumber 2015

By The Water

Dry those weary eyes
Look up to the sun for once
Artificial night has passed and gone

Come on work it out
Brand new day is born for us
The past is dead and gone
We stand here now

All our faults
Are no ones fault
We're perfect as we are

All our pain
Is washed away
By the water

Dry those weary eyes
Look up to the sun for once
The hurt you held inside
Has passed and gone

Ocean Song

Running away
I'm terrified by ordinary things
I will surely die

Taken by waves
They pull me out into the deepest sea
I will surely die
For you

Stars at night
They glitter in a deep but broken sky
I will surely die

By your side
We drift and drift until the end of time
I will surely die
For you

So keep me hanging on
The water gets so cold
The further out we go
I fear I may drown

Washed on the shore
Onto a place where
We can call our own


Alex McKinley

Alex McKinley stumbled down the road
Chasing a bright shining light
He went down by the docks
Where the ships they bounce up and down

The waves hit the shore
And they sang sweet songs
As he tried to collect his thoughts
How did I get here
Where will I be when the sun hits the sky?

I can't stand the beauty
In such a state
My overflowing mind is drowning me
I can rest on hope
Of better luck when the sun hits the sky

Everything I knew
Was trampled underfoot
By no good circumstances

In truth everything
I gladly tossed away

Alex McKinley lay on the shore
Resigned to his fate
The water embraced him
And took him out to sea
As the sun hit the sky


Fools At Sea

Here we are
Ship of fools at sea
Wasting away
Sinking down slowly

Here we stand
Shadows of man at sea
Passing shades
In the night slowly

If I had my choice in the matter
I'd die in my bed
With all my friends around
And my love by my side

Such is not my fate
And I accept it
I gladly rolled the dice
To fight some stupid war
It's not the first and it won't be the last


Aurora

Mountain tops
Drip blood
My home is no more
Yet my ship
Is still in tact
I flee

Set a course
Follow the stars

Aurora don't fail me now
Tell me it's a dream

Tonight I sail
A violent sea
Tempest is raging
The waves crash
Down on me
Aurora please help me


Radiogram

Radiogram
Don't fail me now
It's cold out on the ocean
And I've got something to say
To the one I love
And the one I left
Let them know
I'm alright for now

Radiogram
Don't fail me now
It's cold out on the ocean
And I've got something to say
Don't be scared
Don't you cry
Distance is as far as you make it
In your mind

Radiogram
Don't fail me now
It's cold out on the ocean
And there ain't much here to do
But wait
