DROWNING IN A SEA OF THOUGHT WAVES
TOOK A LONG WALK ON A SHORT PIER
END UP DROWNING HOW'D I GET HERE
TOOK A SHORT WALK ON A LONG PIER
WONDERING WHAT I'M DOING HERE
THEN IMAGINE WENT FOR A SWIM
JUST ON A WHIM OUT ON A LIMB
OF A BIG OLD TREE BY THE SEA
DANGLING FREE THEN SUDDENLY
CAUGHT BY A WAVE THAT WAS ENRAGED
WHY DID I DARE TO DANGLE THERE
RIGHT IN ITS WAY I COULDN'T SAY
AND SO IT SPLASHED AND SLAPPED I CRASHED
I SWAM ABOUT BEGAN TO SHOUT
IT KNOCKED ME OUT WITHOUT A DOUBT
IT PUSHED ME BACK ONTO THE SHORE
I WOULDN'T MESS WITH WAVES NO MORE
DROWNING IN A SEA OF THOUGHT WAVES
WONDERING WHY IF IT BEHAVES
MIGHT ACTUALLY MAKE SENSE SOME DAY
BUT FOR NOW DOESN'T SEEM THAT WAY
YET I COMMIT IT TO THE PAGE
LIKE TAKING ORDERS FROM SOME SAGE
WHO SEEMS TO KNOW BETTER THAN I
SOMEDAY THERE'LL BE A REASON WHY
THIS TALE DOESN'T WANT TO END
IT'S MUCH LONGER THAN I INTEND
IT CAUSES ME TO APPREHEND
TO UNDERSTAND TO COMPREHEND
THAT EVERYTHING HAS GOT TO END
