Into the Waves

The light flickers for a moment
Then dies
A heart sings for an instant
Then cries
A restless emotion
Down by the waves
Licking your wounds
And finding salvation
Someone is laughing
They’re talking sense
Give up my head
For dead, I meant
Flowers are crushed
By heavy hands
Innocence is often planned
This way
Into the waves
Into the waves, my braves
Look at yourself
It triggers, then falls away
Mercenary for a day
Someone set my mind on fire
Cursing love and then retire
Clip the wings off some’s smile
Hands to heads and getting higher
Did you realise
The depth, I wonder
Wading in but going under
Waves of emotion
Waves of contempt
Waves of another
Who heard what I said
