[Female – soft gothic] She rose from the water when the world was young A mother of islands under a different sun Cities of crystal, minds that could see The blue depths cradled what used to be They spoke without words across the wide sea A people who lived in harmony Until the ocean claimed what they had made And the mother sank into endless shade [Male – hard modern rock/metal] I sailed through the waves with a searching soul Looking for the land that could make me whole Every depth darker, the pressure grows The blue keeps its silence and never lets me know [Both] Mother of the Blue Depths Where the first ones used to stand We came with longing in our bones Searching for a home beneath the foam [Female – switches to cheery pop] Sunlight breaks on the open tide I almost believe the stories still hide Voices like currents, faces of light Calling me softly into the night [Male – hard modern rock/metal] But the sea takes more than it ever gives It tests the will of those who live No gates of wisdom, no ancient shore Only the deep that claims me more [Both] Mother of the Blue Depths Where the first ones used to stand We came with longing in our bones Searching for a home beneath the foam [Male – hard modern rock/metal bridge] Feel the weight of a thousand years Feel the pull of a thousand tears Every traveler left the same With nothing but a forgotten name [Female – soft gothic] If the mother still dreams in the endless blue Does she wait for the ones who never knew The greatest gift was never the land But the quiet we could not understand [Both – full power] Mother of the Blue Depths Still sleeps where the currents run We left our names on the turning waves And the ocean claimed what we tried to save Mother of the Blue Depths Keeps the secret in the deep We came looking for a world long gone And left with only the endless song [Outro – Female into Both] Somewhere the mother still dreams… Somewhere the blue still sings…
