My brain is a sine wave, a roller coaster mind.
Thoughts in the water, lost in the tide.
And our love was a dark one under a breathing sky,
Bleeding meteorites, and falling into
Ocean.
Are we still in motion?
When will we breathe open air and see the breaks in our time?
Ocean, free me, I feel frozen.
When will I see golden sun reflect off waves in my mind?
‘Cause my size is a cycle, a full circle of life.
On top of the mountain then dropped from the sky.
And our love was the same song I always ever write.
I sing the seeds into sight, and river into
Ocean.
Are we still in motion?
When will we breathe open air and see the breaks in our time?
Ocean, free me, I feel frozen.
When will I see golden sun reflect off waves in my mind?
Open your mouth.
Breathe in the sound.
When it's right, let it out.
You infant tidal wave.
You riptide waiting to darken the day.
You will awake the sky.
I submit and keep my sails high.
Ocean, waves roll my emotions.
Will I swim below them, safe from every crash that I find?
Or ocean, will I find the moment the wave has barely broken,
And ride into horizons inside?
