Mariner Lyrics

How did you ignore their cries
Just when they needed you
Turn away mariner
Sailing, gone
Did you forget all their names
All their plights
When they believed in you
Calling heard
And do my words leave you scorn
Just come inside me
We'll dream of better times
Of better days and count the ways
That time's left us behind
If there we'll bide it
Empty, the vision's lost
What's paid with words
Is great the cost
To love your enemies
So i can soak it in your tears
To wipe your lies away
Purify the stain
Kill the strain
Cleaned
Jettisoned in icy blackness
Frothing sea
Mariner abandoned
Waiting patiently
Words like the winter
Fill your lungs with cold
So you're not breathing
Immersed and drowning you slow
You won't deny me
I see the damage done
And subtle hints
Of what's to come
Through eyes beyond the veil
Embrace your sorrow
Too late, the time is gone
Just say the words
It won't be long
We'll bring the hammer down
Ignore their screaming
Shun their words
Voice last heard
Begging for mercy
Jettisoned in icy blackness
Frothing sea
Mariner abandoned
Waiting patiently
Chill of the waters
Takes your pain away
But you're not healing
Immersed and drowning in waves
So the plan went astray
Need a muse
I'll be your gabriel
All my words, lonely
Something to keep you warm
When you can't think of a way
Nothing's right
I'll be your genius
Call my name mariner
Are you sailing on
Once led into the ark
Predator
Never to disembark
Mariner
