I'm almost out of breath
I know the ocean is calling my name
Under a moon that is changing its depths
I know the tide will be here someday
To rise tall and to wash me away
I built my life like a house in the sand
By the items this world could provide
I stood my ground to secure our dream
Come wash me away
Let's say it now
Don't wait another year to weigh us down
'Cause we can't swim forever
When we're tied up
To the anchors of our past
To love is to let go
But we swim towards the light that is burning for us
And beneath all this surface of life
We both know what is waiting
For us in the depths of the sea
We have created a monster
That is anxiously waiting to feed
On the love that we built all these years
There will be blood
Let's say it now
Don't wait another year to weigh us down
'Cause we can't swim forever
When we're tied up
To the anchors of our past
To love is to let go
(Come wash me away)
The sea of death has swallowed our love
We are tied up to anchors of life and death
