This is the second sunset I've seen in this place The first sun was speaking in the shadow of weeping Like a puzzle piece misplaced The horizon has been lined with a glowing pen The cape is beautiful and ugly but I understand She born to my eyes concealed merely by grace Just the vision of the lion fills the space
I watch the cool waters rise above the burning sun And I ponder on the side of the world, where the day has just begun The movement of the surface distracts me in my moment of calm And when my eyes met the skies my pain was gone I sit on the living shore absorbing the dying glow It's only fragments of reality that play in this picture show The moon surprises me as it was there before
Like truth deep within that I choose to ignore The ocean grabs my heart and makes me know the things That has me peaceful with my mind and six eager strings
Now I've seen the cool waters rise above the burning sun My mind wondering on other things is now done and gone The rhythm of the surface has me swaying in my moment of calm As I'm cradled by the sand with life in my hand I've moved on
