Sea of Blood Songtext
von Tall Ships

Here we are again
With family and friends
Time to make amends

Take stock and reset
All smartly dressed with make up run
Sharing condolences and thoughts of you
Our missing one

Abscence is most defined and felt at first
It′s the shadow on the ground
As you glide by in your hearse

Time, it devours your shape and your edges
All memory is bent to suit our hidden agendas

So to our absent friend
The one who cast away
Know we miss you so
We really wish you'd stayed

Know you flow through our hearts over and over again
In this sea of blood that flows through our veins


It carries you within us
Though I′ll always miss that face
With it's fine dumb grin

Oh, what a state we're in
Fit to burst I just wish
We could have talked about it

We didn′t know that you were hurting
Lived a life within the shade

Now you′ve lowered your own curtains
I hope you found the peace that you craved
A respite from it all, a cushion to your fall
How sad it is to know you'll never grow old

So to our absent friend
The one who cast away
Know we miss you so
We really wish you′d stayed

Know you flow through our hearts over and over again
In this sea of blood that flows through our veins

I still can't quite believe
We′ll never see each other again
And that tears me apart
Over and over again
