Lyrics:

The rolling waves spread out to the horizon, 
The first light of day illuminates the world,
The crystal clear and sparkling ocean helps you, 
Escape from what's real and what's true,

On your back, your troubles weigh you down, 
You anger, your sorrow around your neck,
The memories you laid to rest, down the road,
But what haunts you is the fear of not knowing.

Chorus - Your meagre possesions comfort you when you're down,
         You're nothing and no-one, just an outcast,
         The people who loved have turned around,
         And thrust that rusted knife in your back.

You thought you knew your friends and your neighbours,
You thought you had a good life, everything you wanted,
You thought you knew the people that really loved you,
Now you're scared of what you really don't know.

You're scared that you have never know pain,
You're scared that you'll never no what love is,
You're scared that fear is the only emotion you'll feel,
You're scared that death is your only encouragement.

CHORUS

You've been betrayed, it was as fateful as the tides are,
Those tides which draw you in, you can't resist,
You're heart is black, and your soul is as cold as ice,
How could they have done this to you? Are you angry?
