Hecate

Come with me, sail me sea
Dash your doubts upon my shores
Smash your decks, break your oars
Find your soul fire
Fulfil your dreams, your heart’s desire
Your heart’s desire
I took a hold of her hand
She took a hold over me
Stepping onto her boat
I could barely breathe
Looking me in the eye with a wildly smile
She passed inside of me
I was sailing alone on her sea
And Hecate said she’d show me the sea of the dead
And Hecate said mmmm she’d show me the sea of the dead
Your heart’s desire
This so called sea was a reflection of me
Shadowy soul dying to breathe
I took out a knife to cut myself clean
And tore it right through from neck to knee
Casting aside what I used to be
And Hecate said she’d show me the sea of the dead
And Hecate said mmmm she’d show me the sea of the dead
