Tidal
Now the wheel is set in motion
All the gold on your fingers
Drag you down to the bottom of the ocean
And a horrendous howl
Issues from a hollow jowl
In a city, in a crypt
That lies beneath the sea
Drowned by a wave
Down to the grave
There¹s nothing to save
You from the tentacles grasping in motion
Now the wheel is set in motion
Now drowns a city beneath the ocean
Now comes the moon to bring down the sky
So dark, so stark
Beyond infinity
Dead space, cold space
Stars fall on me
Now the wheel is set in motion
Your ancestral halls
Echo siren¹s calls
A salted pillar stands where you did fall
In a ruin times forgot
That lies 10,000 leagues
Coral crusted bower
Anenome gravestone¹s flower
There¹s nothing to save
You from the tentacles grasping in motion
Now the wheel is set in motion
Now drowns a city beneath the ocean
Now comes the moon to bring down the sky
So dark, so stark
Beyond infinity
Dead space, cold space
Stars fall on me
Now the wheel is set in motion
You glittered bright
The starry night
Now your silver
Your silvered eyes
Stare up from the bottom of the sea
Your riches have not bought you amnesty
Now the wheel is set in motion
You glittered bright
The starry night
Now your silver
Your silvered eyes
Stare up from the bottom of the sea
