lyrics
We crawled out from the sea,
Our bodies coated in salt,
Our hands raw and barely hanging off our arms,
The people remember us,
Their fear and envy take hold,
They say our beauty drove them to commit their heinous acts,
So they dragged us into the shack and began the ritual,
The men in front of the room begged their god for forgiveness,
While the children covered their eyes and women turned away,
And the men in the back of the room all cracked crooked smiles,
They throw us on the boats,
They sail to unknown seas,
They lock us in the cage and let us sink to the ocean’s depths,
But as the moon’s change,
The ocean sets us free,
The tides carry us back to the shore where the people wait,
They can’t help themselves,
They always remember us,
Yet they always forget we taught them the ritual,
As the elders perish,
The youth will take their place,
They’ll commit their sins and ensure our eternal lives
Cover your eyes and turn away,
Get on your knees and pray.
