The Ocean of the World
For all the pain that lies beneath the waves,
crashing over my head once more,
the numbness creeps forever cold,
on a pain that was there once before,
my cry’s drown in my heart,
as i slip under again,
but there are a thousand more slipping away,
as the tide washes in,
for myself i look out for this time,
a friend is of the past,
for the ocean of the world,
a frail honest person will never last
