Omar Rodríguez-López
Sea Is Rising
Time of the waiting and the careless missteps
Dark cadence is falling
Falling from the weight you've put on me
Caught in the cycle of giving up
The sea is rising over us
Or maybe you've gone so low
It seems there's nowhere left to go
You can't escape the cold score
And it almost seems amazing
So then you push it down
Just through the knee
To play the role that's right for me
The sea is rising over us
Or maybe you've gone so low
It seems there's nowhere left to go
What's left in you has given way to
What's in your heart
Could it be good for me
You want the truth
But now you see the necessary
The sea is rising over us
Or maybe you've gone so low
It seems there's nowhere left to go
The proof is our distance
The sea is rising over us
Or maybe you've gone so low
It seems there's nowhere left
