Bougainvillea thorns
Tempting beacon, helpless ships out on the reef
May we learn to swim
Leaving lifeboats in man-o-war swarms
Frangipani blooms
From lifeless sticks, souls once were forsaken
Wear it in your hair
The water's cool
You move like a charade
The silhouette of a context
Ethereal parade procession that leads us home
Calling out a name
One that heretofore has gone unspoken
Broken down and lame
Lives listless on a riverbed
Easy up to now
Unknown voices linger to keep me sane
Makes me wonder how
And where's the star where it all began?
You move like a charade
The silhouette of a context
Ethereal parade procession that leads us home
We will meet coming out of left field
Randomized entropy reigns
No patterns or order here
Save our breath, pack it up and head out
Words waver and wane of the waves
They're rushing for embrace
Beaches are all closed
Shops are boarded up and streets are bruised
Give it time to heal
We'll dip our toes in sometime again
You move like a charade
The silhouette of a context
Ethereal parade procession that leads us home
