I think a fibre is still there Out on the cliff Rolly polly waves crashing Sea wind wet So high I never climbed back into my body Even then it was a horrible feeling It’s no secret I’m a struggle A quick wind could put me out That’s how I’m sputtering All out of spark I think you thought I was tough Hard as nails And I did try to be But what I really am is scared Really I want someone God, probably A voice still and small Or a tempest howl To say, you’re okay, kid You’ll make it

Waves Turned Rolly-Pollies
I think a fibre is still there Out on the cliff Rolly polly waves crashing Sea wind wet So high I never climbed back into my body Even then it was a horrible feeling It’s no secret I’m a struggle A quick wind could put me out That’s how I’m sputtering All out of spark I think you thought I was tough Hard as nails And I did try to be But what I really am is scared Really I want someone God, probably A voice still and small Or a tempest howl To say, you’re okay, kid You’ll make it
