Alone With the Sea Hurt

[Verse 1]
Once there was an old ocean
Where anyone who saw it
Grew old with the sea
And we were terrified of water
And of all the sons and daughters
No one dared to see

And on the banks of the coastline
I tracked a bleeding loved one
Whose blood was mingling
In the saltiest of waters
'Cause apparently, they faltered
Never again to be seen

So I cry, I tried
I cried 'cause I scry

[Verse 2]
"This old warship has wounds and
It won't sail for nothing"
An old sailor said to me
And I was foolish not to listen
And paid such close conscription
At all the lies I believed
