about

Recorded by Diego Medina at the Old Confidence Lodge in Riverport, NS

lyrics

We started on the wrong foot and layed it on the line
Made it with the best daughters and left the rest behind
Hands up like we're hollow, blowin in the dust
Tell us who to follow, tell us who to trust

You bellow from the distance, rollin us to sleep
Then charge out like an army, callous from the deep
Little too honest, runnin with the whales
The scariest part is, ya hardly know we're there.

We know the way our bodies handle in the water
We know the way the water opens like a mouth
Caught in the rush and buried, beggin for an answer
Who are we now to question, watchin from the coast.

Brave the wait, as long as I'm saved
The best parts are fleeting, I'm chasing the tale
Live and I'll learn the way I know how
I'm unraveled and I'll start up now.
