The Ship was from the willing land
The waves about it roll
And as a globe of powder sand
We lift, we lose, we haul
The time is still
The sky is young
Drawn on towards the goal
And we are as the undescribed
To take and lose and hold
Oh hallelujah, pray for me,
the man who turned away.
My desert in a grain of sand.
My life within a day.
So smooth the stones that count the tides,
the piper plays a reed.
But we are as the undefined,
breaking of the wing.
When grey with time and meant with day
And pray the tie told
The sail is down the wind is gone
The sky is black with crows
A slave to hopes of destiny
Illusion of control
And we are as the unrefined
The waves about us roll
[Background female voice talking]
"Can I take the freedom and forget you?
How can it, form contractions
Don't talk that I'm frightened
Do I know exactly my husband?
That I Love You. We miss you, after that
Go get brethren (grab her then)
I still act"
[Intermixed by different men voices interjecting words]
"Go about it, A song
Another ghost, by himself, I like that
you are too polite
Cup

Hello
-No wait!-
Times
Come back
A man
Chance
In twos
A timer
The sand

Way
Stretched
Light up
The vibration
Awe
That pearly
What a waste
Of help
As Wave
After Wave
