Set Fire to the Sea

from Solace by Come What May

/

lyrics

Our eyes are wide,
Against the night
As darkness spreads,
envelops light
And the wind speaks out
As she pulls,
And presses on your bones.
Here we stand
Patiently awaiting things that will never come
Forget the sun
Retire, for we’ve set, fire to the sea.
What have we done?
Gathered up our foolish pride,
Gave it all unto the tide.
Clear out your lungs,
As the air leaves your frame
Your eyes begin to strain
To see what we’ve done
Now what have we to run from?
Now what have we to run from?

Her voice is so delicate
Her winds seem so calm
And the sun’s out tonight,
Or is that just pride,
To quicken my pulse
Encompass it all?

We’ve grown so distant from love
Now what have we to run from?
It was dark tonight after all,
Or were our eyes just closed?
The flames at sea have grown so tall
Forget, what we don’t know.
It was dark tonight after all,
Or were our eyes just closed?
The flames at sea have grown so tall
Gone, what we don’t know.
