This Is The Sea Lyrics

These things you keep
You better throw them away
You wanna turn your back
On your soulless days
Once you were tethered
And now you are free
Yes, once you were tethered
But now you are free
That was the river
And this is the sea
And that was the river
And this is the sea

Now if you're feelin' weary
If you've been alone too long
Maybe you've been suffering
From a few too many
Plans that have gone wrong
And you're trying to remember
How to find your life used to be
Running around banging your drum
Like it's 1973
Well that was the river
And this is the sea
Yes, that was the river
And this is the sea

Now you say you've got trouble
You say you've got pain
You say you got nothing left to believe in
Nothing to hold on to
Nothing to trust
Nothing but chains
You're scouring your conscience
Raking through your memories
Yes, you're scouring your conscience
Raking through your memories
But that was the river
And this is the sea
Yes, that was the river
And this is the sea

Now I can see you wavering
As you try to decide
You've got a war in your head
And it's tearing you up inside
You're trying to make sense
Of something that you just can't see
Trying to make sense now
And you know you once held the key
But that was the river
And this is the sea
That was the river
And this is the sea
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

Now I hear there's a train
Coming on down the line
It's yours if you hurry
You've got still enough time
You don't need no ticket
You don't pay no fee
I said, you don't need no ticket
You don't pay no fee
Because that was the river
And this is the sea
That was the river
And this is the sea
That was the river
And this is the sea
That was the river
And this is the sea
This is the sea
This is the sea
I said, this is the sea
That was the river, woo
Well, and this is the sea
Oh, that was the river
Yes, and this is the sea
This is the sea
This is the sea
This is the sea

That was the river
And this is the sea

Behold the sea
