New Song : Murderous Shores (inspired by the book called Dead Low Tide that I have not read)

Murderous Shores

punch drunk in the cellar of despair and waste. you'd think i was an alcoholic by the look on my face. i've seen that look a million times in the mirror, like a ship without a captain, there's no one to steer her.

the dawn is breaking on my back and time is thinning. record shows that all my enemies keep winning. and when you come to me and ask me what I'm thinking,...I'll tell you nothings wrong and my life has no meaning.

apart from all the damage that the sea has wrought. i got a thousand memories that will soon be lost. on the ocean floor and on the door my existence will stay. by the pistol's wrath and bullets path my body will lay.

wrapped in soiled linens and tied up real tight. this is not the proper send off that I might have liked. but i'll take what i can get, you see i have no choice. the seas will silence fires just like it has my voice.

chorus:
take a knee, on these murderous shores
give thanks for all the times we had, there won't be more
