They Said a Storm Was Coming Songtext
von Jamie’s Elsewhere

For one hundred days, we set sail without as much as one distraction
But it seems that I have sank because of my past actions and
Mistakes that I have made
And attempts to evade all the consequences now being washed away

Washed away!
They said a storm was coming and "you′ll be washed away!"
They said a storm was coming and "you'll be washed away!"
They said a storm was coming and "you′ll be washed away!"
Washed away!

Maybe now, I'll be made clean
While I bathe in your seas as I seek out all the dreams that I once had
Of a life already lived
Of a gift already given that was taken from me, taken from me
Far too soon


Halt!
Where is your security now
When you begged for a lifeline and you were thrown an anchor instead?!
And has the smallest grain of sand traveled up the hourglass?
Or has the Sun ever set in the east for you or any other man?!

Face forward
Swim towards the surface
And look ahead to the life on the new horizon
There was never any way of going back to the old world

With any sort of victory
Or good tidings of new discoveries

Maybe now, I'll be made clean
While I bathe in your seas as I seek out all the dreams that I once had
Of a life already lived
Of a gift already given that was taken from me, taken from me
Far too soon, ohhhhh

Fortune never favored me!
And the oceans were never big enough
To hold all of our iniquities
And secrets in its clear, blue embrace!

I will ascend from the bottom to be born again
