Black coat on the coast line,
In the distance - it moves.
Slowly waiting for the sea,
To take him to the underworld.
Creatures of the Sea,
Look after him for he is frail,
And cannot withstand the dark, cold depths
That never end.
You’re dragging me down,
Down to the ground
I’m going down, down to the ground
I’m heading down, down to, down,
Down to the ground.
You’re words are coming back to haunt you
They won’t stop.
Till you surrender your soul to the depths of the ocean.
The city ground beneath your skin,
Engulfs your independent frame.
Shallow and grey it captures you and binds you bound to the ground.
Down to the ground, I’m going down
(well you dance with the devil and you sing with the stars
swim in the oceans and your run through the fires)
Down to the ground, I’m going down
Down to the ground, I’m going down
Black coat on the coast line,
In the distance I see your eyes.
They’re wild with rage under colourless skies.
Speak to me softly, oh man of rage.
Speak to me softly, oh man.
Down to the ground I’m going down,
Down to the ground I’m heading down.
Down to, down, down to the ground.
Well you dance with the devil and you sing with the stars,
Swim in the oceans and you run through the fires.
