C F/Dm C F/Dm
You were carved out of the sea
C F/Dm C F/Dm
Watermarked by your ancestry
C F/Dm C F/Dm
In a tug of war between the tide and me
C F/Dm C F/Dm
What felt like loss was a victory
F G C F/Dm
Cause you were swept ashore like bottles holding prayers
C F/Dm C F/Dm
You were carved out of the earth
C F/Dm C F/Dm
Safe and sound in your second birth
C F/Dm C F/Dm
Gravity has tied your ankle to the shore
C F/Dm C F/Dm
As a lighthouse tamed the endless ocean war
F G Em Am7
Against the calming light our silhouettes are changing shape
F G C
The stories you've been told have made you brave
C F/Dm C F/Dm
Such inheritance was formed within the sand
C F/Dm C F/Dm
Like the shells you gather in the safety of your hands
F G Em F
Dive in with your eyes closed For the life you were born to claim
G Am7 F
And the water will be paralyzed By the courage you contain
G Am7 F
And the flutter of your earnest heart It will fill the silent seas
G G7 (riff) C F/Dm
