The True Sea Lyrics

Just get me off of this ocean
I wanna move on the true sea
Where there's no above or no below, just you
Just you beside me

Just take me over that last horizon
Where this light's never been
Into a roaming black silence no shell
Would even attempt to repeat

Just get me out of this hotel
Check me out of this sleep
I been treading water
Hearing recorded messages inside this recurring dream

But my starry eyed compass keeps a secret
No starry eyed theory could contain
And a promise she'll keep until the true sea gathers us up
In a tidal wave

It makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
It makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
She makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
She makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean

I'll follow you overboard
In the collapsing waves
I'll find you in the dark
Like a stowaway

Just leave ourselves unfinished
Just leave an empty page
And let those sweeping arms just
Carry us away, carry us away

It makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
It makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
She makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean
She makes the ocean seem like a drop in the ocean

Cover art for The True Sea lyrics by Paul Dempsey

"It's a long song, goes for about seven and a half miinutes. Which is sort of fitting as its a song about vastness. It's sort of a song about the cosmos while also being a song about two people.I guess it tries to work on the idea of scales, so it tries to jump between this [small] scale and that scale [large] and hopefully in doing so capture in the inbetweens as well." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1en1SjgEm4
