I am the tides Pulled both ways The flame that burns Building, glowing frame But devouring, taking away Pulled both ways Night and day Polars The same I don't understand But I can see everything Skin is all the same Words are just sounds Rain is just salt water Tears the same Lips are all lips All touches are received Happiness is chemical Finger tips cannot **** Finger tips that scarcely touch Are capable of so much pain The rule is You get what you give So why do those who give all Not receive the same Guess it's not enough I was taught love is like gravity Reciprocated and unwavering Like the tides They never fail

Tidings
I am the tides Pulled both ways The flame that burns Building, glowing frame But devouring, taking away Pulled both ways Night and day Polars The same I don't understand But I can see everything Skin is all the same Words are just sounds Rain is just salt water Tears the same Lips are all lips All touches are received Happiness is chemical Finger tips cannot **** Finger tips that scarcely touch Are capable of so much pain The rule is You get what you give So why do those who give all Not receive the same Guess it's not enough I was taught love is like gravity Reciprocated and unwavering Like the tides They never fail
