Black Tide
by CJ Frei
Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Clouds roll in...
Can't see the shore
One more wave...
Then twenty more
Sky turns black...
Water climbs...
Everything hits...
At the same damn time
Can't find north...
Can't find home...
Even with a thousand voices...
I've never felt so alone
(Pre-Chorus)
The sea don't care...
How hard you fight...
It keeps on rising...
Through the night...
(Chorus)
BLACK TIDE!
Here it comes again
Every fear I've ever buried
Rolling back in
BLACK TIDE!
No place left to hide
Every hurt I've ever carried...
Comes alive...
In the black tide...
(Verse 2)
Hope slips out...
Through my hands...
Like trying to hold
The ocean back
Wave after wave...
Name after name...
Every memory
Calls my name
(Pre-Chorus)
The water knows...
Every scar...
Every secret...
That you are...
(Bridge)
How many nights...
Can one heart weather?
How many storms...
Before it surrenders?
No...
Not today...
(Breakdown)
LET IT COME!
I've survived...
Every wave...
Before...
(Final Chorus)
BLACK TIDE!
Wash over me
You can steal the sky...
Not what's underneath
BLACK TIDE!
You won't decide...
Who I become...
When the waters rise...
