Above the Water

Above the Water - Khemmis

When I was younger I caught a glimpse of fate

Above the water flickering

So lonely it seemed so fragile was its beam

In storm waters threatening

Churning tides keep me awake

While I'm still asleep

Can't take my eyes off the failing light

That floats upon the sea

But I won't die it isn't my time

Here is a part of me

Up on the deck 'neath the failing light

Sinking into the sea

There in the darkness I felt it was too late

I saw my father swept away

Just like my lover who sipped beneath the sheets

Into the water rippling

Under the light that keeps me awake

Call out to the sea

That takes me in and holds me tight

But I cannot breathe

If the fates align it isn't my time

More than a part of me

Under the deck submerged in the night

Carried away in the stream silently

Carried away in the stream silently
