Looked across this vast wide ocean and what sleeps inside
Scared that the leviathan's gonna come make me his bride
Water's dark and cold, it must not be good for my hair
Why does he not take a siren and leave me free instead

Swirling like a cyclone sounding
like a million voices all of those to whom I've lied
Serving salty water to a sailor
who's been dead at sea hit by a crashing tide
Running... never to be found
'cause there's a monster on the loose
Calling... all the safety words
and safety numbers I could choose

Defending... Call to arms... The enemy's them all

Why there's so much hate and so little love
there's something in the water
Kingdoms will be falling
so that queens can reign there's something in the water
Stones won't be left untouched
or unturned there's something in the water
Say you wouldn't drink but then you drank from this water
There was poison in the glass

Standing at the port, staring at the darkest clouds
think it's time to sail away
The Ship's made of wood, a silver lining ahead
It's my chance to escape
I'm cutting all the ropes you used to drag me around
I'm on the run, your foe to flee
Please God let your waves take me where I wanna be
like fish and birds I'm more than free

Swirling like a cyclone sounding
like a million voices all of those to whom he's lied
Serving salty water to a sailor
who's been dead at sea drown by the strongest tide
Running... never to be found
'cause there's a monster on the loose
Calling... all the safety words
and safety numbers I could choose

Defending... Call to arms... The enemy's them all

Why there's so much hate and so little love
there's something in the water
Kingdoms will be falling so that queens can reign
there's something in the water
Stones won't be left untouched
or unturned there's something in the water
Say you wouldn't drink but then you drank from this water
There was poison in the glass

A-ah, A-ah A-ah, A-a-ah

Swirling like a cyclone sounding
like a million voices to all of those to whom
I know you've lied
Serving salty water to a sailor who's been dead at sea
bless his soul, I know he tried
Running... never to be found
'cause you're monster on the loose
Calling... all the safety words
and safety numbers I could choose

Defending... Call to arms... The enemy is you

Why there's so much hate and so little love
there's something in the water
Kingdoms will be falling
so that queens can reign there's something in the water
Stones won't be left untouched
or unturned there's something in the water
Say you wouldn't drink but then you drank from this water
There was poison in the glass

Why there's so much hate and so little love
there's something in the water
Kingdoms will be falling
so that queens can reign there's something in the water
Stones won't be left untouched
or unturned there's something in the water
Say you wouldn't drink but then you drank from this water
There was poison in the glass
