Behind the deep and dark blue eyes Is nothing but a sea of cries And the smile only serves to hide All the anguish deep inside Can’t someone take this pain away? Must I relive it every day? You may think I’m in my element But I can’t resist both wind and tide I’m just creating more skeletons The pressure around is too intense No matter how far I run and hide The torment suffered is too immense And day by day the challenge grows To live despite my new sorrows The candle burns, its wick draws thin Temptation begs me to give in Won’t someone take this pain away? Must I relive it every day? You may think I’m in my element But I can’t resist both wind and tide I’m just creating more skeletons The pressure around is too intense No matter how far I run and hide The torment suffered is too immense And hard I try and harder still But just as quick I lose the will I start to falter, lose my way And before I know it it’s too late Why wouldn’t you take the pain away? Am I doomed to relive it every day? Copyright ©2016-2017 KF

Wind And Tide
Behind the deep and dark blue eyes Is nothing but a sea of cries And the smile only serves to hide All the anguish deep inside Can’t someone take this pain away? Must I relive it every day? You may think I’m in my element But I can’t resist both wind and tide I’m just creating more skeletons The pressure around is too intense No matter how far I run and hide The torment suffered is too immense And day by day the challenge grows To live despite my new sorrows The candle burns, its wick draws thin Temptation begs me to give in Won’t someone take this pain away? Must I relive it every day? You may think I’m in my element But I can’t resist both wind and tide I’m just creating more skeletons The pressure around is too intense No matter how far I run and hide The torment suffered is too immense And hard I try and harder still But just as quick I lose the will I start to falter, lose my way And before I know it it’s too late Why wouldn’t you take the pain away? Am I doomed to relive it every day? Copyright ©2016-2017 KF
