Let's just take a step back
Rewind this moment in time
Get ourselves back on track
Just wished this train would stop on a dime.
But instead it keeps on rolling
Rolling straight through my heart
You have no idea how much this hate is growing,
It is literally tearing me apart.
But now you'll never know
The feelings that I've hidden
Except for what I choose to show
And if you read this, everything I've just written....

I love the rise of the ocean
 the hidden secrets of it's life 

the highs and lows of the tides
 the music as they crash

 The silent mingle of the tide
 upon it's shore and 

the disappearance of 
millions of sand granules 
recycled back into it's depth

 dark blue rolls out 
as fast as it rolls in 
it doesn't stop on a dime 

life it takes into it's watery grave
 life it gives to every creature within its grasp...

What are ya gonna bring
That same ol thing
Or that home run swing 
The crack of the bat
To let them know where your at
That you're not afraid to be all that
You think you can be
To stand tall and free
Let all to see
The glorious path you will take
No intent to fake
To face what's at stake 
To make them stop on a dime 
Traveling down the path of time
To cross whatever line
They have drawn in the sand 
To strike down their hand
To be more than they could ever stand
