Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wake where the gulls cut low
Salt on the door, salt on my coat
My boots know rock by name
My hands know rope and flame
The tide comes in like a thundering horse
I cut my bread by the oar-stained board
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that water call
It knows my blood
Hear that water call
It drags me, love
[Chorus]
Sea by the door, sea by the door
I was made for the salt and roar
Sea by the door, sea by the door
I keep my heart in the tide’s old score
(Sea by the door)
[Verse 2]
Fishnets dry on the wall
Driftwood stacked by the hall
Black crows line the mast
Every storm says it’s last
My mother sang through the foam
Now I sing it back home
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that water call
It knows my name
Hear that water call
It feeds the flame
[Chorus]
Sea by the door, sea by the door
I was made for the salt and roar
Sea by the door, sea by the door
I keep my heart in the tide’s old score
(Sea by the door)
[Bridge]
When the winter breaks
And the ice goes thin
I’ll row the dark
Then row again
If the waves take gold
They can keep their claim
I have found my land
In the spray and rain
[Final Chorus]
Sea by the door, sea by the door
I was made for the salt and roar
Sea by the door, sea by the door
I keep my heart in the tide’s old score
Sea by the door, sea by the door
Hear the oars strike, hear us call for more
(Sea by the door)
(Sea by the door)

Style
Viking folk metal with pounding war-drums, stomping low-end chants, and a driving 6/8 sea-shanty pulse; verse rides sparse frame drum, handclaps, and cold fiddle drones, pre-chorus gathers with shouted gang vocals and rising horns, chorus hits with thick choir unisons and distorted guitar heft. Lead vocal is rough and close-mic in verses, doubled and barked on hooks, with call-and-response crew shouts, kettle-drum fills, and a wind-chime swell into each drop. Wide, rugged, stormy mix with icy air and massive low mids.
