Down By the Water

Down by the water 'midst rocky shores I waited for someone I waited all night long Down by the water at the door to the sea watching waves form crash then recede Down by the water I want to go see it's murky innards which lay beneath maybe God's hand could pull this curtain aside like Moses in the bible with a bloody red tide Down by the water I went to go see someone I knew but did not know me.

This is great! Wonderful rhythm, an eeriness, and an excellent unsettling end.
