I come from the clear blue water The false waves slapping the sides Ever quiet stillness from underneath Surrounded by sinking ships and colorful torpedoes The shadows of dogs over my head Screams of happiness Ripples of entering children Hollow pounding on shallow steps Chest aches of longing In my dangerously peaceful sanctuary Just a moment longer To feel the crisp clean summer air The smell of the wind and grass Then it comes, the beating of drums only I can hear Quickened by burning desire I reached the breaking point And burst from the black

I Come From the Water
I come from the clear blue water The false waves slapping the sides Ever quiet stillness from underneath Surrounded by sinking ships and colorful torpedoes The shadows of dogs over my head Screams of happiness Ripples of entering children Hollow pounding on shallow steps Chest aches of longing In my dangerously peaceful sanctuary Just a moment longer To feel the crisp clean summer air The smell of the wind and grass Then it comes, the beating of drums only I can hear Quickened by burning desire I reached the breaking point And burst from the black
