Behold The Sea
Rich Shapero & Orenda Fink
GENRE
In the moonlit distance between white ridges
A giant wave, cascades breaking
Over the foothills, drowning the basin
Toward your birthplace the flood is racing
On this steeple, held by a bolt
Sound of great waters. You’re not alone
Despair— Salt hard as stone
Open your eyes. We’re going home
Platoons of white ants—they freeze in their tracks
The city’s drowning. It’s happening right now
Trapped in buildings or swept away
The wave front moving toward the distant range
The sea—look what it’s done
Will any survive? You’re the only one
Sky paling in the east
Below, behold the sea
You and the boundless sea
I’m speaking to you. This isn’t a dream
Unclip, lower yourself down
I’m from the north, where the sea meets the clouds
A giant wave, cascades breaking
Over the foothills, drowning the basin
Toward your birthplace the flood is racing
On this steeple, held by a bolt
Sound of great waters. You’re not alone
Despair— Salt hard as stone
Open your eyes. We’re going home
Platoons of white ants—they freeze in their tracks
The city’s drowning. It’s happening right now
Trapped in buildings or swept away
The wave front moving toward the distant range
The sea—look what it’s done
Will any survive? You’re the only one
Sky paling in the east
Below, behold the sea
You and the boundless sea
I’m speaking to you. This isn’t a dream
Unclip, lower yourself down
I’m from the north, where the sea meets the clouds
