These rolling tides
are going to drown me
in sorrow in pain
in love and lust
Rolling and tumbling
tugging me hugging me
memories made
this hurt, this trust
I roll to your side
turn my back on this longing
no longer a child
naive and lost
You're rolling away
turned your back on forever
rejection bashing
this shove, this ******
No longer rolling
this shell is empty
but whole and ready
blow off the dust
Roll into the sunset
these waves of emotion
will fill me with courage
it will, I must.

These rolling tides
are going to drown me
in sorrow in pain
in love and lust
Rolling and tumbling
tugging me hugging me
memories made
this hurt, this trust
I roll to your side
turn my back on this longing
no longer a child
naive and lost
You're rolling away
turned your back on forever
rejection bashing
this shove, this ******
No longer rolling
this shell is empty
but whole and ready
blow off the dust
Roll into the sunset
these waves of emotion
will fill me with courage
it will, I must.
