I’m on an island of grief
The waves so tall I’m stranded in disbelief
My eyes avert from the sky
Isolation is not the way to die
I root my feet in the land
Just to see the waves shrink from the shore.
An ocean recedes from this world
My path is now clear.
A journey through deserted desertion
Where were you when I was high and dry?
Inserted in my inhibition
Where were you when I was high and dry?
My first steps are cautious
They lead me out of this abyss
I feel a surge of reassurance
A new world is just beyond this mess.
An ocean recedes from this world
My path is now clear.
A journey through deserted desertion
Where were you when I was high and dry?
Inserted in my inhibition
Where were you when I was high and dry?
High and dry no longer.
All my life I failed to see
The courage that was inside of me.
