lyrics

If you're out in the salty air,
you must be aware
of the song in the wind

In a place between the waves
or kept inside a cave
in the salty sea
I'll lay

But it chills to the bone
it cuts, it wipes, it grows
it cleans, we know

But on our own,
tonight's the night shy boy
we'll stand alone in the quiet clear twilight
of the morn

But as the children grow,
the mothers know.
The beings fill their little skulls

They said they were the darkness
and they were here to finish us
in sorrow I'll believe

A whisp, a will,
a caterpill
why do you thrill me
in the quiet clear in the twilight
of the morn
