"A War of Oceans"
The tide pulls at my feet,
Stars shine above
as I stand before the sea,
water stretches on forever before
me,
I'm getting soaked but don't even notice,
I could drown and
not even know,
I've fallen fast asleep.
All these slow
motion dreams,
just drift by endlessly as I wonder without
you,
Every dream lures me into deeper sleep,
I think I'm afraid
to wake up,
because I don't know if you'll be there when I
do.
City lights glow like fallen stars,
I'm just drifting
from one nightmare to the next,
switching trains at every
stop,
sleepwalking to evade these crying alarms,
sleeptalking
only to whisper your name.
The clock tries to wake me,
and
the sun tries to warm me
but I'm numb in my endless sleep
and
your song is only loud to the waking ear.
Out to the beach
I've crept,
to fight this war of oceans,
The strength and war
of your power,
combating this vast sea of dark slumber,
A tarry
ocean of black filth,
Head on with your sunlit beauty
and all
I can do is open my eyes,
for the first time open my eyes...
