[Intro]
No stone
No cross
No flowers laid in rain
No grave but the ocean
No marker but our pain

[Verse]
I dreamed of a hill behind my town
Where the grass grows wild and high
Where someone might kneel and speak my name
Beneath a kinder sky

[Pre-Chorus]
But the tide was my coffin
The storm was my bell
The deep was the chapel
Where all sailors fell

[Chorus]
No grave but the ocean
No rest but the foam
No prayer but the motion
That carries us from home
Lay me down where the cold waves roll
Let the black tide keep my soul
No grave but the ocean
No shore to call my own

[Verse]
The rich men sleep in marble beds
The kings beneath their stone
But we lie scattered in the brine
Forgotten and alone

[Pre-Chorus]
No widow can find us
No child can remain
Only gulls cry over
The bones in the rain

[Chorus]
No grave but the ocean
No rest but the foam
No prayer but the motion
That carries us from home
Lay me down where the cold waves roll
Let the black tide keep my soul
No grave but the ocean
No shore to call my own

[Instrumental]
Deep below
Soft and slow
The dark waves know
Where dead men go

[Bridge]
Yet if the sea remembers
Then maybe we remain
In every shell and silver wave
In every drop of rain

[Breakdown]
No grave
No name
No land
No flame

[Build-up]
But hear us now
From under the tide
We were not lost
We only died

[Chorus]
No grave but the ocean
No rest but the foam
No prayer but the motion
That carries us from home
Lay me down where the cold waves roll
Let the black tide keep my soul
No grave but the ocean
No shore to call my own

[Chorus]
No grave but the ocean
No earth above our bones
No grave but the ocean
Only waves and undertones
Lay me down where the cold winds moan
Let the deep sea be my stone
No grave but the ocean
No shore to call my own

[Outro]
No stone
No cross
No flowers laid in rain
No grave but the ocean
No marker but our pain
