Deadtide

Relentless

Deadtide


Army of darkness
Rolling waves
Like a black sea of emptiness
As far as the eye can see
Dressing half the world in her misery

Send the wraiths of light!
Push back eternal night

A shell filled with dejection
Whistles down from a dark-choked sky
A flash and then it all goes black

Feel the rain falling; we're still here, still breathing!
It will take more than an army
Again, we rise

I've seen sadness
I've seen sorrow
At oceanic depths
We emerge from waters below
Walking with our loved ones' ghosts

Breaking the boundaries
Lunacy's found me
But I control the battery

I've seen the crushing depths
To there, is where you'll be sent
Lend yourself not to the abyss
Though it may stare, and you stare back
It cannot steal you from this world without your hand

If it is relentless, then so shall I be
If it is relentless, then so shall I be

We've turned the tide
Nowhere for a legion to hide
Darkness snuffed by light
Night yields to a collective heart
A heart of a thousand suns
Gathered round
A glance down the line
Elicits a sense of pride

For those of us still fighting
Watch over us
We’ll meet again
But not yet, not yet

In this moment of silence
We will always honor your memories

I've seen sadness
I've seen sorrow
At oceanic depths
We emerge from waters below
Walking with our loved ones' ghosts
