The Sirens’ Lament unfolds beneath the waves, where the forgotten dwell. Long before nets and sails cut the sea, long before men named the world, the night stretched across the water and time itself counted every ripple. Here, the lost waited, the overlooked, the ones left behind.

Jesus came for the fishermen, for the broken, for those who could follow. But some could not rise above the tide. Some had no feet for roads, no hands for calling, no voice to echo in the open air. They remained under the waves, watching, waiting, their hearts pulled by hope that never came.

They saw Him walk on water while they stayed beneath it. They hoped for a look, a word, anything to reach them, but silence alone answered. The tide remembered and returned, but He did not. Waiting became their work. They did not curse, they did not rage, they did not drown. They endured, knowing that being forgotten did not mean being gone.

This is the lament of those beneath the waves, of patience worn like saltwater, of love felt without return. This is The Sirens’ Lament.

We sang

Before the nets
Before the sails
Before the names of men

The night pulls itself apart
Time counts the water

Jesus

They say You came for the lost
We were already here

Ooooh
Ah

Jesus, you forgot us
Jesus, you forgot us
We are still here
Still beneath the waves

You called fishermen
You called the broken
You called those who could follow

We could not

No feet for roads

Jesus
You forgot us

Nothing repeats
Nothing answers
Nothing resolves

Ooooh
Oooo
Ah

We watched You walk on water
We were beneath it

We waited for a look
A word
Anything

Jesus, you forgot us
Jesus, you forgot us
We are still here
Still beneath the waves

The tide remembers
The tide returns
You don’t

We repeat ourselves
Because silence learned our names

Jesus

If You save
Is it only what can rise?

If You love
Does it stop at the shore?

Ooooh
Ah

We don’t curse
We don’t rage
We don’t drown

We stay

Waiting became our work

Jesus, you forgot us
Jesus, you forgot us
Still here
Still here

No ending
No answer
Only water

Jesus
