[Intro — whispered static] Smoke’s rising… breathe in the ruin… [Verse 1] Smoke is rising War drums in the skies Bloodshot halo in the moon’s dead eye [Verse 2] Through the smoke Through the broken trees, we burn Back to sea Salted wounds return [Pre-Chorus] Engines dying — breath against your throat We fucked the world — now it wants us back Heaven’s burning — bite into the void Let the tide spit us out in black [Chorus] The earth beyond awaits us Calling out our names Deep inside This world is vicious and free I see the light splitting open toxic skies The tide will drag us back into the wild sea The tide will drag us back into the wild sea The tide will drag us back into the wild sea [Verse 3] Black oil licking Skin and steel alike Bodies thrashing in the undertow bite [Verse 4] Waves like fingers Dragging down our sins Salt-kissed throats Begging to be cleansed [Pre-Chorus] Engines dying — breath against your throat We fucked the world — now it wants us back Heaven’s burning — bite into the void Let the tide spit us out in black [Chorus — heavier] The earth beyond awaits us Calling out our names Deep inside This world is vicious and free I see the light splitting open toxic skies The tide will drag us back into the wild sea The tide will drag us back into the wild sea The tide will drag us back into the wild sea [Bridge — whispered filth with distortion] (Oh) To the wild sea (The tide) Salt on my tongue — baptized in gasoline (The tide) Let the ocean fuck this empire clean (The tide) Drown me deeper — where the monsters breathe “It’s coming from below—!” *breakdown* [Final Chorus — screams + haunting choir pads] The earth beyond awaits us Calling out our names Deep inside This world is vicious and free We see the light splitting open toxic skies The tide will drag us back into the wild sea The tide will drag us back into the wild sea The tide will drag us back into the wild sea [Outro — breath + low growl harmonies] To the wild sea… Where you choke on the dark… and the dark moans back.
