Between Sea And Land

from Empty Ship by Apres Pompeii

lyrics

Mother, I’ve got nothing to say. Mother, I’m going far away. I’ve got to get out. Father, please put your pressure down. Father, show me your demons now. They’ve got to get out and I’ve got to get out. Oh, please let me out. Lover, lover I’ve never had. In swatches of lace you’re clad, but I’m living without. Wrap me up in your waves. Brother, I promise I’ll return. But brother, promise me you won’t burn the house to the ground. I can see it now, but I’ve got to get out. Wrap me up in your waves. I’m sinking into the earth and sand is flooding my human hearth. Southerly, carry me to my bed. Southerly, whisk me up to my death. You’ve got a hold on me now, shot a hook through my bow. I’ve got to get out, so come and take me now. Wrap me up in your waves. I’ve got to get out, oh, please let me out.
