I was walking the beach
I was racing a wave
It knocked me off my feet
I fell into the tide
It spat me back on the sand
I laughed without a clue
How lucky I was to land It's been a long long time
Since my life was spared
It's been a long long time
But I'm still not scared - It was the dawn of man
I held the bone in my hand
I was hungry as death
Wondering through the sand
I met a wild boar
My bone came down with a crack
I tasted flesh and blood
And swore I'd never look back + It was the dawn of man

But I was not yet there
The guns they all went pop
We heard the screams and shouts

So many people to mourn

This is your life, now keep it

We'll feel like a child again
And look behind us

A silent knock on Davy Jones' door
Octopi and hydronauts explore unsalvaged shipwrecks caught
In coral reeves that span the ocean floor The geothermal chemistry
Of vents below the deep blue sea
Burning on and on
The winking of an angler's light
You make this underwater flight
Down where there is no sun My heart lies with the sea
My heart lies with the ocean - My, the continental shelf and all its sunken wealth
Boens of those who walked the plank
The depth to which these pirates sank
Crushed by pressures deep - The submarine has lost its way
Shall we ever make it to the bay
From where we once did meet
A sonar ping still rings for help
Diffused amongst a cloud of kelp
Where mermaid kingdoms breathe My heart lies with the sea
My heart lies with the ocean + My, the continental shelf and all its sunken wealth
Bones of those who walked the plank
The depth to which these pirates sank
Crushed by pressures great + The submarine has lost its way
Shall we ever make it to the bay

The wind will push your sweet sweet ride
But this foreign wave just appearified
You're sailing on the pumpkin tide Focus on the sound of my voice
You are under my control
Obey my will or I'll bury you alive
And it's you who'll dig your own damn hole Forget your friends, what good are they
Suckers filled with words that chide
Heads green with envy but orange with pride
Screaming at that pumpkin tide - Listen to their whispering voice
The current where the pumpkins roam
You never saw a thing
Never saw the thing you thought you saw
Just shadows looking for a home - The door into your heart is locked
Its key is buried in your mind
Too heavy to carry but too huge to leave behind
Without it you will surely die
But even that's just another lie
