Star Above Rough Seas [DEMO]

Star Above Rough Seas is the first song we wrote together. It's a silly beach love song as an allegory for Mary, the Star of the Sea.

Lyrics

Third afternoon wasting time on the beach with my empty head lost in the waves
I tried to impress, traced your name in the sand, but the surf keeps on wiping away
(let's go!)

The gaze of the sun strikes my castle in shambles, the grains just don't stick like they should
The heat and the sunlight have dried up my insides, my chances are ruined for good
But with you I know that my soul'd come alive and my thirst would be quenched by your love
I'm dying without you, I can't find my bearings, I scream to your star up above

And I don't know where we're going, all I know is that we're right here
With your eyes like a beacon to light the way home, like a star above rough seas
I have nothing to fear

With nothing to hear, clamp a shell to my ear for the echoes of siren songs past
Their vacuous chorus is empty and useless, it's not what my heart wants at last
These sound waves aren't real waves, they're nothing like your words, that call with a love all too real
I'm dying to hear you, to marvel at your words, that cut me but then that can heal

And I don't know where we're going, all I know is that we're right here
With your eyes like a beacon to light the way home, like a star above rough seas
I have nothing to fear

When my soul is parched with shame and I'm lost I'll call your name

And I don't know where we're going, all I know is that we're right here
With your eyes like a beacon to light the way home, like a star above rough seas
I have nothing to fear
