Sea Story
from The Trees and The Bees by The Trees and The Bees
lyrics
I tried to cross the sea,
I didn't want to be.
I tried to walk away, but I was much too weak.
The sun had sunk in, I thought I wasn't real.
I closed my eyes, but I was much too deep.
As I was deep, inside the water blew my mind.
I tried to take a breath, but couldn't find the way.
I started shouting, broke down began to cry.
I cried for mercy, I wanted to stay alive.
I'm not the strongest guy, most of the time I lie.
I tried to cross the sea, but I was much too weak.
I didn't want to be.
I tried to walk away, but I was much too weak.
The sun had sunk in, I thought I wasn't real.
I closed my eyes, but I was much too deep.
As I was deep, inside the water blew my mind.
I tried to take a breath, but couldn't find the way.
I started shouting, broke down began to cry.
I cried for mercy, I wanted to stay alive.
I'm not the strongest guy, most of the time I lie.
I tried to cross the sea, but I was much too weak.
