Track No: 02

There's still so far to go
And I can't feel my toes
When the rain soaks through the heels
And slips to the sole
Yeah, the blades are two feet tall
I wade in green
I'm moving forward
To where? God only knows
Feel the wind's harsh refrain
Like the clouds gripped my face
Saying, "It's alright to run
From all this pain"
Oh and when it's time to go
With one last breath that's in my lungs
I'll scream, "It's all for love"
I'll scream, "It's all for love"
Come and kiss me, salt water
Oh finally, I feel, at three or four degrees
I'm free in salt water
Embrace the deep and leave everything
It was just a dream
I can see it up ahead
Where the sky meets the ground
And after that there's only moving grey
I am filled up with regret
With things I did or never said
Just leave that well alone
And come kiss me, salt water
Oh finally, I feel, at three or four degrees
I'm free in salt water
Embrace the deep and leave everything
It was just a dream
And it was just a dream
It was just a dream
It was just a dream
Was it just a dream?
Now I'm standing on the edge
Gazing into hell
Or is it something else?
I just can't tell
When there's nothing left
I close my eyes and take one step
And say, "Well, here it goes"
And say, "Well, here it goes"
Come and kiss me, salt water
Oh finally, I feel, at three or four degrees
I'm free in salt water
Embrace the deep and leave everything
It was just a dream
