lyrics

When the light shines on the sea the waves look like flames
But the light they make isn't warm and it just turns to grey
And the sound of the sea like a roar and now i'm awake
And the sound its a call for the few that let themselves change
They'll change, like waves
I'm here in a land where the sea is so far away
When the earth moves like a storm and my feet they won't stay
But i'll stand still and be calm as the wave crests and breaks
And i'll look and i'll see that i'm whole and i'll welcome that change
I'll change, like waves
See that door open, you can't turn away
Like a wave lost in the ocean, you can't find your place
It seems like you're devoted, but the wave never breaks
Keep yourself open, then maybe you'll change
Like waves, we'll change
