The dredges are silent, the oyster beds bare
Empty shells on the seabed, a ghostly stare
We took every treasure, left nothing behind
A gluttonous hunger that made us go blind
I'm the last of the divers, with salt in my veins
Searching the deep for what little remains
Oh, the last pearl, a final, lonely light
Gleaming in the abyss of an endless night
A silent teardrop for the plundered sea
The final memory of what used to be
I'll hold you in my palm, this treasure and this curse
For I have stolen the universe.
My father's old hands showed me where to look
Now his old compass is all that I took
To find this one sphere, this pale, perfect sphere
The end of the bounty, the start of the fear
The water feels colder, the current runs slow
As if the whole ocean is ready to go.
Oh, the last pearl, a final, lonely light
Gleaming in the abyss of an endless night
A silent teardrop for the plundered sea
The final memory of what used to be
I'll hold you in my palm, this treasure and this curse
For I have stolen the universe.
