the waves

I realize when I start to drown
I needed to slow my breathing down
The wave says where I end and begin

Strength of the ocean everywhere
waves crashing here and there
I'll always take the risk to win

Thrown a million times
waves have come to rule my life
I will only stop to start again

I see the surface I need the air
end over end surface everywhere
I can almost touch it with my hand

Just another wave is my life
the only thing thats true
the ocean rules the game
nothing else matters to me
in the ocean my heart beats

waiting on another wave
only to wash and baptize me
I can breathe again

I ride the storm until I'm free
don't need a woman to define me
the rush of waves is all I need

the ocean tells me where
tells me where I begin or end
my blood may be everwhere

I'm going up to come down
may pay the price I see
but I will be free

the ocean rules the game
nothing else matters to me
in the ocean my heart will always beat

swinging between trees

Time is the seasons of our life
And we get older every day
while all the golden moments
like sunsets sadly fade away

Everything is in these moments
in sunsets and sunrises anew
yet in the end
truly there are few

moments are never a getting younger
every day begins and ends
through some perpetual hunger
hopes that seem to fade away
slowly slowing before the end

Looking back on the times
on the times of life passed away
wanting so much to find a better place
childish hoping on a better place to play

All the places we will never go
never to see again a look on your face
moments feeling like they wouldnt end
oh the days I wish I just might save

holding on loosely to what never lasts
you can't hold what was sold
like decisions the die is cast
love eternal sacrificed for past

nights are never warm by looking back
without touch memories leave you sad
days are saved, days together
in the sun the stars the weather

pile up destruction by regrets
emptiness like an empty pest
swallow darkness nonetheless
only one place is a place of rest

selling selves when theres more to buy
delusion of the heart worth the why
give the gifts to less than the sum
loss of warmth of countless setting suns

moments when filled by every need
past moments treasured sacriced the peace
the only truth those days swinging between trees
when the world was right and laughter was so deep

The way you bathe in light
leaves me humbled by your side
and I can hardly breathe


when we meet its like we never left
your light all i need for sight
there are no needs

In your light I can hide
I dont mind I can breathe
like the ocean it surrounds me


I've ran far, so far from home
when you leave I'm so weary
like sun fading like a flower


In your air I can breathe tonight
like a falling star rising high
you like sun overtakes me in light

last time

One last time for truth
the final stand for you
like sand in your hands
a moment slipped away

take flight my love
you always had a choice
although I am gone
you will hear my voice
calling from behind your fear
