Mind Vessel

Adrift far from land, out in the open sea Winds pushing, waves pulling, with no release Exposed, fragile and yet built persistent In a constant battle against this element The water can always find its way No matter how slight might be the cut So when the skies above turn gray Just keep this vessel sealed and shut Shut Keep it shut There is something you need to understand This water is neither your enemy nor your friend So accept your weakness, accept the pain To weather the storm and defy your bane, my bane, our bane Defy your bane Defy The ocean is fierce and will demand respect This is a fact, which you can't neglect So buckle up now, for this hell of a ride For there's no way to win, only to survive Survive Only to survive The water can always find its way No matter how slight might be the cut So when the skies above turn gray Just keep this vessel sealed and shut Shut Shut it Keep it shut
