Song lyrics

I leave you tomorrow
When you hunt my shadow
You treat me like horror
I'm not feeding your violence
I force you with the silence of love

I'm leaving the harbour
Tear drops to swallow
We stay under water
Till your sonic reaches out for our name

[Chorus:]
And I will cry out for the ocean
Cause when the ships arrive
I cannot hope for a mayday

They call our names
We will fade away
Will they be ashamed
When we fade away

So who do you follow
Humans of sorrow
Come down into the hollow
Tearing me up in vain

[Chorus: 2x]
And I will cry out for the ocean
Cause when the ships arrive
I cannot hope for a mayday

We are flying like the wind
And diving to the ground
I'm hiding in the sand
Till the night brings us out

[Chorus: 2x]
And I will cry out for the ocean
Cause when the ships arrive
I cannot hope for a mayday



When the Ships Arrive

I leave you tomorrow
Will you hunt my shadow
You treat me like horror
I'm not feeding your violence
I force you with the silence of love

I'm leaving the harbour
Tear drops to swallow
We stay on the water
Till your sonic reaches out for our name

[Chorus:]
And I will cry out for the ocean
Cause when the ships arrive
I cannot hope for a mayday

They call our names
We will fade away
Will they be ashamed
When we fade away

So who do you follow
Humans of sorrow
Come down into the hollow
Tearing me up in vain

[Chorus: 2x]
And I will cry out for the ocean
Cause when the ships arrive
I cannot hope for a mayday

We are flying like the wind
And diving to the ground
I'm hiding in the sand
Till the night brings us out

[Chorus: 2x]
And I will cry out for the ocean
Cause when the ships arrive
I cannot hope for a mayday
