Beneath the Teeth
(mmmmm-hmmmmm) Below the line where the sunbeams fade
Where the ancient, deep-sea trenches are made
Something is waking, colder than stone
Leaving a trail
of white, hollow bone
When the water
turns black as ink
That's the moment
your heart will sink (ahhhhh)
Beware the hunger
of the sea eater
No line is safe,
no anchor can keep her
She swallows the tide,
she swallows the sound
Dragging your heavy dreams
into the ground
Two rows of silver,
a mouth like a cave
Rising beneath the highest wave
No warning bell, no cry in the dark
Only the teeth leaving their mark
There is no rescue,
no light to guide (no light) Just the endless,
turning tide
Beware the hunger
of the sea
eater
No line is safe,
no anchor can keep her
She swallows the tide,
she swallows the sound
Dragging your heavy dreams
into the ground
She's waiting... Down below... (shhhhh)
