Thalassa Lyrics by Valiant Hearts
(Feat. Trenton Woodley & Ladders On Tables)
He follows the frequencies
Of shallow melodies
They’re haunting him from far across the distant seas
They’re drowning him on shores he knows he’ll never leave
And no matter how hard he tries
He knows he can’t ignore the sign
He calls his name and pulls him away
Where the waves are far too deep to swim
A serenade is carried on the winds
Beckoning to embrace death
‘Cause he knows deep down
There’s no escaping it
The siren song they sing
You’re seeping into his very being
His lungs will fill with salt till ocean’s all he breathes
His Atlantic kingdoms stretched out for eternity
And no matter how hard he tries
He knows he can’t ignore the sign
He calls his name
And pulls him away
(It’s taken away)
Where the waves are far too deep to swim
A serenade is carried on the winds
Beckoning to embrace death
‘Cause he knows deep down
There’s no escaping it
The surface of the water is paper thin
He falls right in
Between the [?]
Then hand in hand, we’ll walk with him
Hand in hand, I walk with him
And there’ll be the end of him
(There’ll be, there’ll be, there’ll be)
The end of him
(Just breathe, just breathe, just breathe)
The end of him
(Just breathe, just breathe, just breathe)
Where the waves are far too deep to swim
The serenade is carried on the winds
Beckoning to embrace death
‘Cause he knows deep down
There’s no escaping it
The surface of the water is paper thin
He folds right in
Between the [?]
Then hand in hand, we’ll walk with him
Hand in hand, we’ll walk with him
Hand in hand, we’ll follow him
Head down, where we won’t be found
Crushed by the beautiful, violent sound
Talk of eternal [?]
The ocean becomes him, now
