Return To Sea was the first song we did for Welcome To Sunken City (excluding Henchman and Countdown which were recorded earlier before we decided to make an LP). It has by far the most amount of tracks of any song on the album. As we went on we realized we didn't have to put so many guitars on everything. Although this one was recorded on 16 track tape like the rest of the LP, it was transferred to Pro Tools for mixing and the addition of sound effects.
lyrics
Can we stay or are we cast out?
Everything we know will wash away
But for now there is work to do
So much before we return to sea
To the sea
