They who made you, they made me too
Quiet like you, violent like you
I've seen you there, wild in my dreams
When you return, go to the sea
Air is your permanent struggle to breathe
When you return, go to the sea

Gone, gone, gone, you were never alone
I'll come home and raise you up to what's left
Gone, gone

Ghost of your voice finally rests
Open your eyes now to all that is next
Don't be afraid now, you won't need me
You'll be at peace now, at last from the sea
You will forget eventually
The life that you wasted that led to the sea

Gone, gone, gone, you were never alone
I'll come home and raise you up to what's left
Gone, gone, gone, you were never alone
I'll come home and raise you up to what's left
Gone, gone

They who made you, they made me too
I see they can make us okay
