lyrics

You're like a force of nature, my typhoon upon the sea
Dredging up shades from the deepest depths, that pace inside of me
But when it washes all to shore and I've surveyed the damage done
Not a stone was left unturned no mooring tie un-rung
To walk along the shell strewn beach that encapsulates desire
The heat was ever pulsing like a furnace draped in fire

And I'll answer your siren call, just call me back
and I'll answer your siren call, just call me back
and I'll answer your siren call, and you'll dash me on the stones
but don't leave me there alone.

Howling like a fury, she wore me down to bones,
The fatale's call it trumped it all, devoid of reasoned tones
The knotted lash the held me down, her wine stained fingers tied
I don't know if it's cabernet or heart blood from my pride.

Everywhere your siren song rings round my aching ears,
I'm drawn in close and dashed on rocks, worn down by breathless tears
when it comes to sink or swim I'll sink down like a stone
If you're the anchor on my wrist at least I won't go alone.

And I'll answer your siren call, just call me back
and I'll answer your siren call, just call me back
and I'll answer your siren call, and you'll dash me on the stones
but don't leave me there alone.

The shells that stick up stark from sand are not crustaceous remains
but faces from the past and hearts that I have left there maimed.
It's not that I do not deserve to be wrecked as I am so,
It seems to me that this cruelty was a design I made my own

And as the sea draws back it's tides, soon again it will flow
that what you reaped and what you raped you soon again will sow.
