lyrics

Morning warmth, clear blue sky
It's a Sunday in July
At my perch by the shore
Unaware of what's in store

As the crowds line at the gate
The ocean churns in all its weight
Violent waves crash to the sand
Then funnel out to no-mans land

All the days I have toiled waiting for this day
When all my adventures are real
I have spoken too soon, now the storm has come
This is nothing but danger concealed

Have the hours passed through the day?
I can't feel it anyway
More intense, sun beats down
The water beckons with its sound

The crowd has swelled, 10,000 souls
Can we keep it in control
As they swim in numbers vast
There's this feeling it can't last

And they float off their feet for a moment in time
Until all their intentions are gone
In the grasp of the rip they're defenseless now
We must act before it's been too long...and all gone wrong

Got to move your head slowly
and blink your eyes
I don't think I can do this
I guess I'll give it a try

Now it hurts so bad I don't think I can do this anymore
It's a desperate time, a black Sunday calling from the shore

And exhaustion sets in as we go in again
They won't stop plunging to the abyss
Now I look like a lion but feel like a mouse
It's a day I will never forget...are we okay?

I need someone to rescue me I'm drowning in the sea
