On the tides I ride Black water splashing on my mind This ocean I surf is endless Pain and joy are separated with seconds Earth was meant to be all water I surf with a camera Its black and white filter will portray the truth I surf with a pen and a brush The black canvas of my brain is a portrait of truth Earth was meant to be all water And sometimes I wish I could let myself drown Instead of convincing myself to be a sophist with sophistry I have not a death wish But how easy it is to be sleeping forever under the sheets Earth was a flaming ball before it became all water Will I live to see the same salvation for my flaming soul?

Flirting with death under the sheets
On the tides I ride Black water splashing on my mind This ocean I surf is endless Pain and joy are separated with seconds Earth was meant to be all water I surf with a camera Its black and white filter will portray the truth I surf with a pen and a brush The black canvas of my brain is a portrait of truth Earth was meant to be all water And sometimes I wish I could let myself drown Instead of convincing myself to be a sophist with sophistry I have not a death wish But how easy it is to be sleeping forever under the sheets Earth was a flaming ball before it became all water Will I live to see the same salvation for my flaming soul?
