The perfect crime has no victim

The salty air can be my witness

My alibi, the prison in my head

Crumbling the moment I have finished

For the waters know what it means

To be battered to and fro

She welcomes my embrace

And melts away my years alone

She does not know to judge

And will not cease in strength

She drags to me down her depths

And through her hazy lengths

Water does not pity

And waves do not fear guilt

I'm free to lose my freedom

From this hopeless world I've built
