In a blanket of sea
Neath a canopy of stars
Within the silent tide
Below the shining moon
When morning comes
Set for sail
Neath pillowed cloud
Within the coming storm
And all the water in the world
Can't put this fire out
I'm alight
Light flecks top the ocean
Throughout space and time
I'm alight
In the bunker I wait
Within the comfort of my art
Completely at home
In the arms of creation
Though danger out there
I'm still here
Though weathered by storm
The candle's alive
And all the water in the world
Can't put this fire out
I'm alight
Light flecks top the ocean
Throughout space and time
I'm alight
By nature or nurture
God or monster
From that dark cold sea
Sprung the question you see
Through aeons of conscious
Evolutionary seed
From what springs life
My reason to be
Chorus:
And all the water in the world
Can't put this fire out
I'm alight
Light flecks top the ocean
Throughout space and time
I'm alight
