The Depths Songtext
von Esben and the Witch

An orange light appears
It signals night is here
Fluorescent like the reefs
That used to lie beneath

A flickering at sea
Is guiding you to me
A tower in the gloom
Just an empty room

All my hopes and fears
Are dashed upon the cliffs
The sea is dark and deep
And it′s consuming me

You can't stem the tide
When the moon is bright

Wave after wave, after wave

You can′t stem the tide


A shoal of tiny fish
Glitter in the mist
A galaxy below, where
The constellations flow

The jellyfish, they swarm
And the waters start to warm
Threatening to sting
Their tendrils beckoning

A virtue or a sin?
If it taught me how to swim
If I swallow all my pride
Will I sink below the brine?

You can't stem the tide
When the moon is bright

You can't stem the tide
When the moon is bright

Wave, after wave, after wave

You can′t stem the tide

When the moon is bright
