Come In The Water Lyrics - Sleeping Operator - Barr Brothers

Come in the water 

There ain't nobody else here 

Feel it still when the planes are coming 

I just want to lie here 

Left our homes, left our friends 

Left the wombs we lived in 

Spread out along the road 

And I've been weak 

When my Lord was calling 

The water will take our load 

On the day that you were born 

Legions laid down their arms 

On the day you lost control 

Legions leapt for your throat

Telling me I'm wrong... 

Is the face in the water unmistakable? 

Black's the color of the sea 

When it's free from the light of the sun 

Your crystal ball... 

Your faith in the age of medicine 

And the children are asleep 

With their heads on the butt of a gun 

You put up a wall... 

Keep the bad ones out 

And the good ones in 

Fight the battle on your knees 

Till' the sea swallows everyone 

Come in the water 

Or is there somewhere you have to go? 

We'll keep a lantern open 

In case you loose your way in the cold

On the day that you were born 

Legions laid down their arms 

On the day they found you out 

Left no shadow of a doubt 

And the children are asleep 

With their heads on the butt of a gun 

Fight the battle on your knees 

Till' the sea swallows everyone
