Wave

Sand strewn around the messy blues dogging up the hues

Of my memory

​

I banked the fever, killed the man, steady hand

I got it all in January

​

Trials waxed, comeback

Then I had a heart attack

​

So afraid, it had no name, but it lurked

Lurked in the doorway

​

But still, still

I′m okay

​

Yeah, it stalks the shades, and the escapades, and the nights

When I wanna give up everything

​

And the leaves turned red, I swallowed lead

Poisoned just to feel like I'm an enemy

​

So I wrote a song and called it art

Soon I′ll be a marble statue

​

But still, still

I'm okay

Still, still,

I'm okay

​

And my guitar

Passed from those who paved the way

​

When the leaves blow away and our lives are okay

I′ll dig my toes into the yellow sand

​

I′ll wash my face and every grain of salt

I'll take with the palm with the hand

​

I looked up to the sky and fell

And bubbles bubbles were all I could breathe

​

And I saw my life like a picture book

Spread across a table somewhere far away

​

I lifted all I could and felt the water coat my shoulders

I was carried by the waves

​

Still, still

I′m okay

Still, still,

I'm okay

Unscathed

I coughed up all the pain

′Cause still, still,

I drowned and I woke up okay

​
