Lyrics

Intro

Spoken

Everything that was ever going to happen

is already on its way.

You didn't start it.

You won't stop it.

But you can move with it

or against it.

Only one of those hurts.

Verse 1

Watch the water walk away from the land

no warning whispered, no wave of a hand

it was leaving long before you learned to stand

it'll leave again when the hour is unplanned

you can plant your feet and demand it return

or you can read what the river has to learn

the pull of everything doesn't pause for permission

the season shifts without a single submission

the tide turns on its own precision

resistance is the only painful decision

Hook

The tide comes in

the tide goes out

that's the only thing

it's ever been about

no need to fight

no need to mourn

everything bends

that's the natural law

Verse 2

You've been holding something heavy in your hands

something always slipping through like sand

the ache ain't in the losing β€” understand

it's in the grip, the guard, the last demand

the tree don't mourn when autumn takes the leaves

it just breathes and bends and believes

what looks like loss is life between the seams

the river runs the clearest when it frees

the wound stays wide when the walls won't release

resistance robs you of your only peace

let the current carry what it needs

some things were never yours to keep

Hook

The tide comes in

the tide goes out

that's the only thing

it's ever been about

no need to fight

no need to mourn

everything bends

that's the natural law

Instrumental Solo

Bridge

Spoken

The suffering is not in what happens.

It's in the place where you push back

against what is already moving.

Let go of that place.

Not because it doesn't matter.

But because the tide

was never asking your permission

to begin with.

Verse 3

There's a peace that doesn't come from trying

a stillness on the other side of fighting

not falling β€” finally finding

that the current was always guiding

the moon moves the water without touching

the earth turns without announcing

some things were never yours for counting

some burdens never yours for mounting

when you feel that pull of everything

don't mistake the motion for a fall

it's just the tide doing what the tide does

answering the oldest call of all

Hook

The tide comes in

the tide goes out

that's the only thing

it's ever been about

no need to fight

no need to mourn

everything bends

that's the natural law

Outro

Spoken

The tide doesn't ask.

It just goes.

And somehow

that is enough.
