They Came Over the Horizon

They came over the horizon
They came over the horizon
What do I do? Shadow from the blue

You saw me sitting on the beaches of my green hometown
Kraken a smile cause my heart's finally settling down
When the absence of sound, and the shadow around
Lifted my head
Well, the giants came swiftly as a fleet of hearses
So quick to violence I could discern no purpose
At their mercy, I tersely awoke in a sweat

I'll flounder under the light
Or I'll drown
(Baleen Guillotine)

They came over the horizon
They came over the horizon
What do I do? Shadow from the blue

My father sleeps in peace for reasons he disclosed
Well Johnny, Jonah rode the boat and he was swallowed whole
Heaven knows, my son
Jonah rode the boat oh heaven knows
I've a conjecture in effect that has me terrified
I'll hardly end up like Bartley all dressed in white
And see no blinding light
My firelight could die tonight

So now my soul's in peril
My heart's just ferril
Give the Bald Man a bottomless barrel
Or get ready to bail

They came over the horizon
They came over the horizon
What do I do? Shadows from the blue

All right
I'm worried about my mother and my father, oh lord
I'm worried about my sisters and my brothers, oh lord
I love too many people to get out without a sound
Maybe I'll take the bait and sing your daily praise
Maybe I'll lie in wait for that beast to show his face
Either way, oh lord, either way
This boat is going down
