about

This track is a little bit about helena bonham carter, irish folk tales, graveyards, sea shanties, and brotherly love. Some lyrics borrowed from James Joyce. Music adapted from Mattk's "Sick Waves". We still refer to this song as "Sea Foam" though.

lyrics

Sea foam cleansing my toes
I had a dream that we were roses
Looked on the floor and it's covered in clothes
Oooooooooooooh

Washing my face in the basin of love
Floating just so I can stay above
Lying on my back in the slush and the mud
There once was

Under her eyes

Cold waves across my body
String lights cover the greenery
Emerging my hand in the candle wax
So sad but all this beautiful scenery

Bury me in the old churchyard
Beside my oldest brother
My coffin shall be black
Six angels at my back
Two to sing and two to pray
And two to carry my soul away
Oooooh

And when we are married
How happy we will be
Wild rose blossoms on that little green place
