Album: Another Life

The ship was sinking; we were drinking, singing one last song,
Casting our gold into the ocean
You grabbed a bucket, started screaming, "Come on, come on",
let's try and slow the downward motion
Back in the kingdom, we were kings and queens and Oh, so strong
That God himself could not contain us
We never thought we'd be the shorter end of sword and gun
Now god himself could never save us

Waves of silver, waves of gold
Are coming down to take me,
To separate my body from my soul
And Jesus either leaves or takes me
Hopes of heaven, fears of hell
And what's the chance I'll make it
All my other plans have failed,
And I tried so hard to faked it

We started sinking, drinking water from the open sea
Losing our bodies to the ocean
You grabbed my hand and started screaming, "rescue me"
Let's try and slow the downward motion
Back in the kingdom we were kings and queens and Oh, so strong
That god himself just had to show us
We never thought we'd be the colder side of land and sea
But he's the only one who knows us

Waves of silver, waves of gold
Are coming down to take me,
To separate my body from my soul
And Jesus either leaves or takes me
Hopes of heaven, fears of hell
Tell me, what's the chance I'll make it
All my other plans have failed,
And I tried so hard to fake it
