Three Women and the Sea Lyrics

She said that water had a hidden depth
Where monsters lay
She said she knew they’d
Drag her to her death beneath the spray
What fearsome creatures
Would envelope her, she only knew
But die she would
A tragic victim and a martyr too Sisters united, sisters divided by the sea

She said she had a fear
The sea would take her breath from her
Its all-pervading flow
Would fill her lungs without a care
As useless limbs betray her
Weakness by the ocean’s might
She’d slip away beneath the blue
Into the endless night

I said I feared the blackness
Feared the things I couldn’t see
Of water, black as ink
A blackness to infinity
I’d glaze for hours with a fear
But with a longing too
To disappear completely
And to live a life anew
