Open my mouth to speak
All I hear is the voice of my enemy
I swore I left the sea
But it turns inside of me
My feet stray into the deep
What means to love can only think
I swore a faithless oath
I heard the rooster crow
I turned my face from you
You warned me that I'd be lying
But whose hand was writing
That I failed you?
Every night I see you in the same place
Water washing over your feet
When it crashes over my face
Our hands never seem to reach
You warned me that I'd be lying
But whose hand was writing
That I failed you?
