Lyrics
When your blue body passes
And you ebb
You’ll become food
For the masses
In the depths
And you’re nowhere
You’re nowhere
Of importance before you
Come to rest on the ocean floor
Then your brined scent
Will travel
Like a sound wave
To lure fare and wide
Those scavengers
To your grave
Well they’re hungry
And you smell so good to them
So your audience grows larger than
You could have ever hoped
Well the sharks start first
And last will be the tube worms
‘Til you’re nothing
But bones and baleen
And your days will disperse
To the bodies of others
Isn’t that such a beautiful dream?
