Tides

Brother, we were so close, like shoremen out to sea
Sharing our hearts on decks carved from rotten trees
Brother, you found the Lord and set sail for different seas
Leaving the crew to die, ignoring helpless pleas from lesser men. Brother, when doubt set in, you set your ship ablaze
Drowning the fools aboard for wanting to believe in something more than them
Brother, you found a way to sever heart from limb-
I wonder whose hand you’ll seek when midnight storms set in

Brother!
Open your eyes!
Because, although we see things differently
Your blood is red like mine
And at the end of all things coming
Will we be washed of all our pride?
Will we help each other swim
Or be taken by the tides?

Show me where your bones release
And tell me how you find your peace
When every word you’ve spoken turns to knives
You’ll tear the truth of men out from their eyes
From their eyes
(From their eyes)
Show me!
(From their eyes)
Show me!
(From their eyes)

The storm is setting in as new rain starts to fall-
The ship begins to lurch, its speed becomes a crawl
The lower decks are filled with the ocean’s mighty wake
The sails torn in the wind, the bow finally breaks
The sun is in your eyes with the helm still in your grasp
For when the depths embrace your stead
You’ll be alone at last
