<br />
==Lyrics==<br />
Inside he's empty<br><br />
a head filled with shopping lists and politics<br><br />
and a hollow eggshell kind of frailty<br><br />
pulling himself back together like desperate wishes<br><br />
into the wild sea that moans and boils<br><br />
filled with old ghosts and a whole other language<br><br />
uncoiling forever<br><br />
indecent and foreign<br><br />
welcome to the laws of decay<br><br />
the song of Darwin and dismay<br />
<br />
The wild sea rises higher<br><br />
heavier it rushes down on him<br><br />
it was invited, it was not unwelcome<br><br />
his fear was just a 60 watt silver lining<br><br />
shining from the edges of his crying<br><br />
teaching him its frozen prayers<br><br />
distant as the next second<br><br />
as far as any distant land's future on the horizon<br><br />
he's laughing in the ocean<br><br />
laughing in the ocean<br><br />
laughing in the ocean<br><br />
all his life was a gesture<br><br />
a check paid in dirty dishes<br><br />
listen to the sea wind, hear how it hisses<br><br />
as it rolls over all your vain petty wishes<br><br />
and your sweet passionate kisses<br />
<br />
The wild, wild sea<br><br />
forever dumb, it has no memory<br><br />
just a replay of your complicated amnesty<br><br />
as it rolls over rocks and weed breaking your birdcage<br><br />
and your poet's pages<br><br />
and all your drowned words<br><br />
that were just death threats and unpaid debts<br><br />
and leaves you breathless and peaceful for a while<br><br />
and you think your heart is without hate for a while<br><br />
and you think your soul is without hate for a while<br><br />
and your body was an animal that loved to hide<br><br />
see the source of your heart buried deep in the tide<br><br />
see the source of your heart singing from the tide<br><br />
lonely joy<br><br />
lonely joy<br><br />
tears of joy<br><br />
the source of your heart deep in the undertow<br><br />
hidden tongues and hidden hands pulling you from below<br><br />
to the source of your pain<br><br />
the source of your pain in the undertow<br />
