lyrics

Tumbling and turning the dark water falls
Up from the deep to the land
Filling the holes as it flows up to me
And I’m not so sure where I stand

Cracks in the earth like a great Chinese wall
Quakes like a tottering throne
The river is deep and I’m trying to swim
But I’ll probably sink like a stone

Under the waves
Stirring the sea
Old Poseidon
Aqua vitae
Lighting the way
Neptune’s sun

Thrashing and threshing the dark matter falls
Down from the sky to the land
Swallowing whole all that pass in its way
Where chaos is making a stand

Cracks in the sky and the sanctified halls
Thunder cuts straight to the bone
The oceans will rise and the sheltering skies
Will scream like an old gramophone

Under the waves
Stirring the sea
Old Poseidon
Aqua vitae
Lighting the way
Neptune’s sun

Nobody can reach you
You’re moving in a nether world where sunlight burns your eyes
Like falling through holes in the sky
You think you have died
But if we could see through your eyes

Nobody can reach you
You’re king of all the ancient worlds so why would you return?
And we should known it by now
That it’s all in your head
For you have escaped us somehow

Under the waves
Stirring the sea
Old Poseidon
Aqua vitae
Lighting the way
Neptune’s sun
