lyrics

Sails assaulted spin
The rudder bows beneath
And I'm headlong into headwinds
And tossed about at sea

Billows build about
Succumbing to fatigue
And the facade of my own sovereignty
Over my destiny

And so I just let go
Seeking to be freed
From the madness of contending with
The unyielding sea

Floating off at sea
I'm floating off to thee

Nothing left to think
There's no me left to sink
Nothing left to think
No me here left to sink
No nothing left to sink

Nothing left to be
But grafted into thee
