Leviathan Lyrics - The Possibilities Are Endless - Edwyn Collins

So I step on the edge of my world 

at a place where the sky meets the sea 

but my haven was a cauldron of bile 

for the sea was bewitched and defiled 

There's a passage leads down to the shore 

There's a step for each day of the year 

They are ancient, but they stood the test of time 

Those who ventured, they'd little to fear 

So I stood on the old harbor wall 

as some black-headed gulls reeled and stalled 

It was winter, and the gull's heads had turned white 

like so many spell-bound vermin, blessed with flight 

So vain were an enchanted domain? 

whilst the wind howls an ancient refrain 

So I stood on the edge of my world 

at a place where the sky meets the sea 

but my haven was a cauldron of bile 

for the sea was bewitched and defiled 

and the sea was black and swollen 

and the sky was red and molten 

and the sea was black and swollen 

and the sky was red and molten 

but the tide rose and fell 

while the moon had broke the spell
