Shadows on the Seawall Lyrics


Somewhere between now and then,

Shoreline turned to glass in nameless fire.

Below the surface lies,

All the remains of our past life.

This mirror stretches on into the dawn,

Our shadows dim.

Break through this liquid sand,

Turn the hourglass on its end again

Creatures trapped on the shore,

Under glass they wait -

Bodies incandescent,

Shining through the waves

Our shadows on the seawall,

Our ashes on the bay

Our ruins floating seaward,

Soon to evaporate

Sunfire drown

Raise our twilight

Into the night

Before new dawn
