Arrival In Nara Lyrics

As she submarines
The rope loops 'round her feeble feet
Before the dawn
Breaks on her sorry grasp

In a blink and in one motion
Rope constricts
Rips her towards the ocean

She never finds her bearings
Sucking splash into her lungs

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Though I cannot see
I can hear her smile as she sings

And though I cannot see
I can hear her smile as she sings

Oh ooh
Ooh

Arrival In Nara Song Chart

This acoustic-driven track is the first of three tunes on This Is All Yours named after a Japanese city in which tame deer are viewed as divine. Nara doesn't actually appear in the lyrics, which detail a drowning girl singing as she falls into the ocean.
