Well the coal black sea waits for me me me   The coal black sea waits forever   The waves hit the shore   Crying more more more   But the coal black sea waits forever      The tornados come up the coast they run   Hurricanes rip the sky forever   Through the weathers change   the sea remains the same   The coal black sea waits forever      There are ashes split through collective guilt   People rest at sea forever   Since they burnt you up   Collect you in a cup   For you the coal black sea has no terror      Will your ashes float like some foreign boat   or will they sink absorbed forever   Will the Atlantic Coast   have its final boast   Nothing else contained you ever      Now the coal black sea waits for me me me   The coal black sea waits forever   When I leave this joint   at some further point   The same coal black sea will it be waiting
