I've forgotten What it means You across the void Slumbering beneath Your eternal ocean I hear your siren song Set sails and follow sunsets Over the vast liquid expanse Rocks jut out and become my anchor Driftwood and I drift away I pass islands but they're not mine They're yours, fortresses of solitude Each one a dot, a speck, atolls in infinity Your loneliness spread and fragmented Incarnations of your personality One by one fading from view Fading into obscurity A mirage to the eye as if thats all you ever were What's yours or mine is gone We own the same mind yet live alone Our hearts turned to the storm Finding peace with our hells as it crashes into our bones We drift apart alone And I've forgotten what that means

Love Song For An Ocean
I've forgotten What it means You across the void Slumbering beneath Your eternal ocean I hear your siren song Set sails and follow sunsets Over the vast liquid expanse Rocks jut out and become my anchor Driftwood and I drift away I pass islands but they're not mine They're yours, fortresses of solitude Each one a dot, a speck, atolls in infinity Your loneliness spread and fragmented Incarnations of your personality One by one fading from view Fading into obscurity A mirage to the eye as if thats all you ever were What's yours or mine is gone We own the same mind yet live alone Our hearts turned to the storm Finding peace with our hells as it crashes into our bones We drift apart alone And I've forgotten what that means
