After The Retreat — Thirteen Senses

Incompleted rhythms of the heart killing my soul Incompleted visionary forms taking control Resisting all attempts to build control around here Resisting all decisions making it so cold around here Sooner or later the tides'll be back here Returning for ever and changing everything Now that all the good islands have sunk down Into the ocean We're deeper than you know

Communication breaks down, words escape as I speak Communication brings the whole world down on its knees Resisting all attempts to build control around here Resisting all decisions making it so cold around here Sooner or later the tides will be back here Returning for ever and changing everything And now that all the good islands have sunk down Into the ocean We're deeper than you know

It's all you must deliver It's all you must deliver It's all you must deliver

When they retreat will you come back? I ask of you no more than that When they retreat will you come back? I ask of you no more than that

And I would center all the plans Be stronger than a man And slow the whole thing down And build a better land And do it all with you
