The Waiting's Over

no more oceans left
reserves have all been tapped and spent
so raise the floodlights

shipwrecks on the snow
they seem so small against the glow
we struck the night blind

now opened wide and robbed for pearls
there were signs
but we stormed the doors
where once slept a sinking continent now
there is nothing more

i would wait for you
but something tells me that won’t do
the waiting’s over

start it again
start it again
drown out all light
the love this day
would desecrate
lost in time
