lyrics

Here we are at the edge
There's no more to be said
But we can't stop our swimming
Hunger drives us on (and on)

The scent of blood in the dark water
We don't want to make waves
With our black eyes we shall seek
All others give way to our need
Fathomless need

Be still and let me drown
Stop swimming, let me sink
Fathomless and fearless
The darkness bleeds

There is no empathy
There is no relief
Just blood in the water
And the frenzy of beasts
The tides go on and on

Be still and let me drown
Stop swimming, let me sink
Fathomless and fearless
The darkness bleeds

We hold on to our emptiness
We hold onto our greed
We're sharpening our teeth....

Stop Swimming
