Tsunami

"Time is a healer", we sang in the dark
We meant it in kindness but it broke your heart
"All things for a reason", we wove into cloth
To hang in your window to scare the ghosts off
But we only fed them with our platitudes
They gorged on our terror and rushed over you

Like a tsunami
Tsunami
Ah, ah

This great wall of water was here all along
Imbibing your spirit, rehearsing your soul
And watching us silently, learning us too
Tempest inviting us all to join you

In the tsunami
Tsunami
Tsunami
Tsunami
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
