P Ferguson had written his tune and was about to upload it, but couldn't get a bass tone he liked. He called in his good pal who happened to have a free moment from his current touring band J Shardik and A Maturin, and he laid down some smooth bass grooves. Oh and its about a drowning.
lyrics
We had always been afloat
So where did you go
Did you hide at the bottom of this Sea
We played our silly games
So when did you change
And go out on your own
I can’t find a lifebelt to throw
Sunrise came and it went
Hours after your decent
Now I know you won’t come back
I knew the lines were drawn
Long Before it all went wrong
Had I taken all of this too far
Now there’s nothing left except this Dead Sea and stars
I’ll wait here
I’ll wait here
And pray for your return
But I know you’ve
Been taken
Swallowed by the ocean storm
The divers searched both day and night
But they’ve given up the fight
They say you are long gone
Now we all will shed a tear
Think about the better years
Before your fatal fall
No one knew this to be your last curtain call
I’ll wait here
I’ll wait here
And pray for your return
But I know you’ve
Been taken
Swallowed by the ocean storm
May they find you
May they find you
Sleeping peaceful in the depths
I hope this sea held you close
As you took your final breath
