Ocean Eyes

I feel so cold
Tonight
I walk this path alone
So desperate to find
Some peace of mind
I stare out at
The tide
As sunlight fades to night
Notes ringing in my ears
But I still hear my fears calling me back
Back to where I was before
Before the pain inside
Became too much to hide
Is this the end
Of everything that I have known
As the foundations bend
I’m powerless to mend
These fractures
Is this the end of all I’ve known?
Destined to wind up on my own
The saddest epilogue to end this tragic story
As the ocean is roaring
And the white noise surrounds me
I am lost in my thoughts
And I feel the ache from the weight in my heart
Is this the end of all I’ve known?
Destined to wind up on my own
The saddest epilogue to end this tragic story
The burden
The guilt
Of love unfulfilled
(If you ever believed in this
Just know it’s now or never)
The pressure
The stress
Of words so meaningless
(If you can’t say it now
Then don’t you even bother)
The burden
The guilt
Of love unfulfilled
(If you believe in me
Then don’t give up that way)
The pressure
The stress
Of words so meaningless
(The words are in my heart
But my tongue can’t spit them out)
And now I’m just a man
Staring out at the waves
Reaching toward the horizon
As I’m washed away
I feel so hollow
This feels so bleak
I’m left without a word to speak
And now it’s me
That you despise
So I slowly close my ocean eyes
