Tributary Lyrics by Nearly

reminder.

2005

Sea is rising
Running deeper
Takes me through the night
The jagged peace
The razor ease
Will bring you to the warmth
Of my light

Slowly sinking
Steals the tears
And never need the whys
Don't fight the tide
That brings you nearer
All the once was dark
Will be bright

Fall to the edge
Crawl back again
Your yesterdays
Fall far away
All the while
And you run

Lost in, my world
Locked in my
Lost in, my world
Locked in my world again
No fear
Can harm you
Now

Crawl to the edge
Fall back again
My yesterdays
So far away
Bitten all the while

Dive in, Don't be afraid
Walking from the road you paved
With everything
And you watch
While the world you built
Fades away
For nothing

Wash away

(Sea keep rising
Faster, deeper
Brought you through the night
To wash the tears
Numb the fears
And drown me in the cool
Of your light.)
