June was the lobster shell, I dug by hand, a haven that hid me well, Beneath the sand, The white windy waves washed in, But I stayed dry, The great breakers broke again, 'Cause I'm on and off inside. And then, when the empress run aground, And my eyes turned blue and green, I heard a gorgeous sound, And that's when it became a dream, When the sky fell in, When the hurricanes came for me, I could finally crash again, And that's how I became the sea. I wrenched the engines off, And dragged them down, The depths turned the iron soft, As they swiftly drowned, And I brought the ocean side, To its rusty knees,
As I felt the even tide, Deep in my shallow dreams. And then, when the empress run aground, And my eyes turned blue and green, I heard a gorgeous sound, And that's when it became a dream, When the sky fell in, When the hurricanes came for me, I could finally crash again, And that's how I became the sea. (When the sky fell in), When the sky fell in, (When the sky fell in), When the hurricanes came for me, I could finally crash again, And that's how I became the sea, That's how I became the sea, That's how I became the sea
