Lyrics

[00:04.872]
[00:18.612] Well, the coal black sea waits for me, me, me
[00:23.680] The coal black sea waits forever
[00:28.277] The waves hit the shore
[00:30.184] Crying more, more, more
[00:32.666] But the coal black sea waits forever
[00:35.827]
[00:56.359] The tornados come up the coast; they run
[01:01.087] Hurricanes rip the sky forever
[01:05.580] Though the weathers change
[01:07.696] The sea remains the same
[01:10.517] The coal black sea waits forever
[01:15.298] There are ashes split through collective guilt
[01:19.739] People rest at sea forever
[01:24.232] Since they burnt you up
[01:26.870] Collect you in a cup
[01:29.169] For you the coal black sea has no terror
[01:34.916]
[01:53.019] Will your ashes float like some foreign boat
[01:57.982] Or will they sink absorbed forever?
[02:02.580] Will the Atlantic coast
[02:04.826] Have its final boast?
[02:07.464] Nothing else contained you ever
[02:11.957] Now the coal black sea waits for me, me, me
[02:16.816] The coal black sea waits forever
[02:21.283] When I leave this joint
[02:23.686] At some further point
[02:26.429] The same coal black sea will it be waiting
