I saw a woman by the shore
Her feet half buried in the sand
As the sound of waves were lappin', sun was nappin'
She was cryin' for her man
And with a tear she dropped
And never stopped
And told of how this misery began
Each day for seven years
She'd walked the beach in case she saw
A heaving ship returning, fat with riches
Headed for the shore
With needless wealth
And the one man
That she'd been longin' for
No clue was given of
The crew of her lover's cursed ship
A simple voyage of discovery
A three-year round-trip
Sullen hope had never yielded
So she knelt with quivering lip
So there the woman by the shore
Her knees half buried in the sand
As waves were lappin', sun was nappin'
She was searchin' for her man
With a final tear she stopped
And I began to understand
This underwater tomb is keeping me from you
While my decaying body festers, my soul will never rest
And though you may cry yet
You must endeavor to forget me
So when you learn of my demise
Your soul can rise
The setting of the sun was fire
Her face a crimson red
Her bloodshot eyes staring toward the beheaded figurehead
Disfigured, dismembered
But remembered in his stead
This underwater tomb is keeping me from you
While my decaying body festers, my soul will never rest
You know why I don't want to see your face
That talking chicks that kind of makes
Somebody checks somebody forever everyday
I told you to mark correct
You must drive through together, ooh oh
So when you learn to drive
You might know it's okay to die
Now seven years of doubt
Have left her face by time betrayed
Unraveled dreams of a past life with her man becoming frayed
With a tear she dropped into the sea
As hope began to fade
