lyrics

The holy sea is no coward
Alarms are armed
Albeit loose and passive
Amid an early dawn
And you'll find
Piece of mind
Hidden in the breeze
For these bones
As they lie
Resting with great ease

Somewhere is a frown lit ablaze
Some weeping flower still decays
Deaths creeping on
Creeping on in

Open up you gates
Heaven Awaits those who ask
Bolt your doors
Hell hides behind good fortune in vain
Life and love is the same
Hate breeds the glue
Held and contained
Sadness is gladness in waiting
All from above and down below

Your smile is contagious
It echoes through the ages
Sit still in the heat
Move around to shake the cold
There's not one forlorn answer
To keep the truth at bay
And the most we can offer
Is that he died today

Open up you gates
Heaven Awaits those who ask
Bolt your doors
Hell hides behind good fortune in vain
Yeah love and life is the same
Hate breeds the glue
Held and contained
Sadness is gladness in waiting
All from above and down below
