lyrics

SEPARATE THE OCEANS FROM THE SKIES

When tides recede and leave behind our empty shells
It will force us to reflect
On the times we had
(And) the mistakes we've made, my friend
I'm sure we've done enough
With more time we could've reached the stars
But life takes unexpected turns
And severs bonds that were unbreakable

Walk on
Don't even think about the
Could-have-beens, it's all behinds us now
This reef will dissolve
Beneath the waves
I'll see you again across the parallels

We travel distances
Transcending lines that tie us to this place
We leave behind our silhouettes
(But) tomorrow you won't know my name

I fall, crawl and rise up;
I regain my strength just to fall back down again

We lost our bearing
When we were hit by the storm
The course has led me into the
Great unknown

This vision won't fade I keep it locked in my heart
Waiting for a moment when our lives will restart
But now the tides are changing
I'm being drowned by the force of the undertow
Fragments of my soul
Will be scattered all over the ocean floor

All the actions
That define our lives
Leave scars that
We cannot hide

Walk on
Don't even think about the
Could-have-beens, it's all behinds us now
This reef will dissolve
Beneath the waves
I'll see you again across the parallel(s)

With every sojourn of my life
I leave behind traces of my soul
Some will never be found
Some will be taken by friends that I used to know
