Cut the cord and swing the lead
Failures fate the one instead
The tidemark's rising

Blossom falls and clouds the air
Powder trails the one in care
The tidemark's rising

Leaving you became arriving
Falling down became diving

Leaving you became arriving
Falling down became diving

Flowers bloom and take the sun
Chances left when all is done
The tidemark's rising

River swells and breaks its banks
Acting up instead of thanks
The tidemark's rising

Leaving you became arriving
Falling down became diving

Leaving you became arriving
Falling down became diving
Flooding cares to keep hope clear
Drowning all to keep what's dear
The tidemark's rising

Keeping undercounts as act
Lying hard to prove a fact
The tidemark's rising

Leaving you became arriving
Falling down became diving

Leaving you became arriving
Falling down became diving
