The Black Waves
Sitting on the beach of life feeling all right unaware the water is getting closer;
Sitting on the beach of life feeling concerned unaware the water is getting closer;
Sitting on the beach of life feeling the dread that something is upon you soon.
Swimming in the sea of helplessness looking calm but really struggling to stay in place;
Swimming in the sea of helplessness fighting against the tide;
Swimming in the sea of helplessness barely keeping your head above water.
Crash go the waves as you go under the crest of each one;
Crash go the waves as you wonder if you can be helped;
Crash go the waves as you wonder if you should even fight it.
Slowly the waves die down, have you beaten them ?
Slowly the waves die down, will they be back ?
Slowly the waves die down, you know they will !
Recovering on the beach of live until next time...
