[Verse 1]
Out on the sea, we'd be forgiven
Our bodies stopped the spirit leavin'
Wouldn't you like to know
How far you've got left to go?
[Verse 2]
Somebody's child, nobody made you
It's not what you stole, it's what they gave you
In or out, you go
In your silence, your soul
[Verse 3]
Would you rather go unwillin'?
The heart is full and now it's spillin'
Barrelin' down the steps
Only a moment left
[Chorus]
In hind of sight, no peace of mind
Where you begin and I'm defined
Daughter of unconscious fate
Time will tell in spite of me
In hind of sight, no peace of mind
Where it begins and we're defined
Shadows bend and suddenly
The world becomes and swallows me, yeah
Yeah
[Outro]
Whistle to a friend
Gentle 'til the end
Anyway, in a name
She takes shape just the same
