written by Mark Stott of the Waterforest.
[F#]
These [C#] things you've seen, you better [F#] throw them away.
[G#] You gotta turn your [C#] back on your [F#] soulless dreams.
[D#] Once you were [C#] tethered, [G#]
now [F#] you are free.
Once [C#] you were tethered, now [F#] you are free.
God [C#] was there ever, [G#]
this [D#m] is the sea.
You're [C#] feeling weak, you've been alone [F#] too long.
Maybe [C#] you've been suffering from a few too [F#] many crimes that have gone [C#] wrong.
You're trying to remember how fine [F#] your life used to be.
[D#]
[C#] You're running around, rocking your [F#] drums like it's 1973.

this [D#m] is the sea.

You [C#] say you've got troubles, you [G#] say you've [F#] got pain.
[C#] Say you've nothing left to believe in, you've [F#] nothing left to hold on to.
You've got [C#] nothing to trust, you've got [F#] nothing left to change.
You've been [C#] scouring your conscience, raking [F#] through your memories.

I [C#] can see you wavering, you're flying [F#] to the side.
[C#] There's a war in your head now, [F#] it's tearing you up inside.
[C#]
You're trying to make sense of [Fm]
something [C#] you just can't see.
You're trying to [C#] make sense now, [G#] you know [F#] he wants hell to keep.
