She said that water had an even depth where monsters lay She said she knew they'd drag her to her death beneath the spray I feel so creatures would envelop her she only knew That die she would a tragic victim and a martyr too
CHORUS: Sisters united, sisters divided Sisters united, sisters divided By the sea
She said she had a feel the sea would take her breath from her It's all pervading flow would fill her lungs without a can As useless limbs betrayed her weakened might the ocean's might She'd slip away beneath the brook into the endless night
CHORUS
I said I feared the blackness, feared the things I couldn't see Of water black as ink, blackness to infinity I guessed for hours with a fear but with a longing too To disappear completely and to live a life anew
