The Shores

You're the locker for secrets treasure and bold And if the tales are true than you're as kind as you're cold The bringer of adventure and the taker of souls And if none of it's true then there's still one thing I know Street lights will block out the stars in the sky But we'll keep 'em safe, they're alive in your eyes I know And here I stand at a shore Knowing you deserve better than what you've endured And sparrows can fly in every direction But I see the shoreline, no it's not that far Oh she says I am the ocean you are the greedy man You've touched my surface but not my depth Before you I am full of life Brewing storms and sinking ships But you see only waves So I crawl back down the shore from whence we all came And when I emerge I'll be a different man I'll turn my world and all it seeks to control And when I emerge I'll be a free man Oh she says I am the ocean you are the greedy man You've touched my surface but not my depth Before you I am full of life Brewing storms and sinking ships But you see only waves
