Oceans

The sun kisses the sand
as it darkens all
in the palm of my hands

I'm trying to sleep but can't
as I think myself
into another wasteland

The pier is a place for some
but I can't will myself
to oversee what's done

There's nothing keeping me here
just a force unseen
I can't see or hear

I'm in a ripping life vest
I'm in a lying dream
I'm in a locked up hope chest
I'm in an echo, unseen

I'm in a rerun show
a puzzle of confusion
I'm on a freezing avalanch
then sunburnt till I'm bruising

Just let the creatures rest at bay
It didn't matter anyway
I found myself a brand new place
It didn't matter anyway
There is no shield from things they say
It didn't matter anyway
I left their world of fear and hate
It didn't matter anyway

These waves are looping high
I am seeing those visions
and I fear I might die

Don't know if I ever had friends
as I lay in the cove of all
the should have been/could have been

there's no one tossing a raft
cause I don't want help
so there's no one to ask

At least I'm safe out here
Where no one resides
now I have no fear

I'm in for lifelong horror
They're trying at my tear ducts
I'm on a cold numb planet
I'm on sand, don't wanna get up
Still in a rerun show
A puzzle I keep losing
There are no answers here
Still I'm searching, refusing

Just let the creatures rest at bay
It didn't matter anyway
I found myself a brand new place
It didn't matter anyway

There is no shield from things they say
It didn't matter anyway
I left their world of fear and hate
It didn't matter anyway

There is a voice in the distance
That I don't want to see
Its trying again to wake me up
To where I don't wanna be

There is no water left
There is no sea to see
There is no place I can rest
To get away from me

Whispers?
By the lighthouse they roam
Still tossing their rocks
I try to fight back
They play the victim song
They run to the others
And bury me more
I try to make amends
Now I lay on the floor

Just let me breathe down here in the water
