Sea Songs

I'm face down in the river
And drowning from my old sins
I've shaken my last shiver
As the silent night begins

Chorus:
I'll sing my sea song
Pounded by the weather
Heading into nether
Come along

I'll sing my sea song
Angels in the heather
Frightened by the weather 
Bang a gong

I'm drifting in the river
That washes me out to sea
I'm tug boat delivered
To the only place I should be 

Chorus:
I'll sing my sea song 
I couldn't catch the weather 
I'm drowning in the nether
Broke the gong

I'll sing my sea song 
I'm never saying never
I'm living here forever 
Right or wrong
