There ain't much now I can pull
Of my fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers
Now I'm stranded on the mountain's edge
Swallowed up home
Just to see those eyes of her shine
Walk among the mild sea bones
Sink to the bottom and linger there the rest of my years
And there's only one way back
Good luck's gone and there's no more brakes
From that one with the long black cape
The further and further I drift
Just the ground beneath that shakes and gives way
Get swept out in the riptide
And I'm falling to a sea of tears
To lie 'neath the waves of sorrow and tears
Where her love once flowed
No stuntman surprises or Houdini that disguises
But the more I resist
Where my heart in me wants
Into the ground where the bad seeds are sown
And take route and pull me further in
Is worth any sum or length of time
For death defying escape
Lost sometime ago
And search for the trail that we both riding
She lets go of my hand
Avoid the tap on the shoulder
That would fill that space
Long and long and longer it takes
Down and down I go
