Lonely Whale

from Higher Ground by Summit Attempt

/

lyrics

There was once a lonely whale
In the darkness of the sea
There was none quite like him
Wonder how he came to be

He swam alone
Gasping as he broke the water's vice
And we swam away
His whistles bouncing off the ice

The other whales they'd look at him
And wonder what was wrong
They could not see the scars on his soul
They could not hear his song

So they swam away
Bound by lives of ignorance
And he swam alone
Didn't make a difference

He swam for miles that seemed like lives
Through the waters of the world
But he could not find another soul
As the sunlight turned to gold

And he swam alone
Clinging on to memory
And he swam away
His whistles fading in history
