Water and Time
Every day you wake with a heart that's whole
A dream of holy water to heal your battered soul
Open that door, you hit the brick wall
A day with its fists of lime
Pressure Builds like a Rising tide
Aimed at your body and Mind
Water and Time A mountain brought to its knees
Hurricane force of years
A century in tears
Water and time A desert hidden by sea
She pointed at her heart then pointed my way
She shook her head no, that's all she had to say
Days grind by and pick up speed
The moon pulls and drops the tide
What is this abrasive medium?
It's only just Water and Time
The ice in her veins cut a canyon through my heart
The minutes turn to years, I can't remember that part
The cost of hope Price of dreams
Mean nothing to the dirt and stone
In the end we're washed away
In the end we're all alone
Days and Weeks, months and years
An ocean of salt held inside tears
