Rootwater - The Tides

You know the tides come together to mill stone to sand
One flies above just to gather his ways in his hand
Your loneliness is your lover, your fear is your friend
You know the tides come together to mill stone to sand

Everything was done a million times
Every path is beaten in the wild
Every man was born to die, they say
Every pattern drawn, there's nothing left

And yet I keep on pushing through
Keep on searching, on and on again
I believe in what I want to see
And then see what I believe in

We suffer – on the road to
FIRE – to our Promised Land
DIRE – to where lies peace of mind
MIRE – just to touch the sun…

You know the tides come together to mill stone to sand
One flies above just to gather his ways in his hand
Your loneliness is your lover, your fear is your friend
You know the tides come together to mill stone to sand

The water comes, I need to ease my mind
The tide will come for everything I have
I take my souls and bury what is mine
I have to reach some other place and wait

I thought that I can touch the sun
I thought that I'm free now
I thought I was in God's hands
I was wrong. Does it change it all?

The water's rising, the water's going up
The ground is breaking down, down beneath my feet
It washes over me, it cleans me, cleans me clean
The sun can save me, the sun the only thing

You know the tides come together to mill stone to sand
One flies above just to gather his ways in his hand
Your loneliness is your lover, your fear is your friend
You know the tides come together to mill stone to sand

What you feel now?
You're standing eye-to-eye

(x2)
You wanna love the life
You wanna love the life
You wanna love it? – look at you now?

(x2)
You wanna love the life
You wanna love the life
You wanna love it, why you wanna love and feel it?

I want to be a sender, don't want to be passed over now
I want to find salvation, don't want my mind to die now
I want to be a sender, don't want to be passed over now
I want to find salvation, don't want my mind to die now

Fire, water, soul and body, earth, the mother, sun!
