March to the Sea Songtext

von Baroness

There was an anchor
There was a silver-sweet refrain
You tucked your fingers
In between my troubled bones
And what you did next was second to none
You really let us down
You tied yourself up and jumped in the sea
Never to come home

Valium
You left me all alone
Tell me when I will be whole again

There was a whisper
Once there were heralds and parades
You sang your secrets
Through the tolling of the tide
The fugitive room, the amateur tombs
The silence and the cries.
The quickening beat, your march to the sea
Never to return

Sweet morphine
You've taken all of me.
Let me know when you will let me go

Heroin
Where did you take my friend?
Tell me why those ropes are hanging high

Valium
You left me all alone
