Endless flow of water
Slipping through the spray
Glistens in the moon bright

Steals from wave to wave
Silent from the surface
Catching in the space

A breath before returning
To the graceful silky sway
Gliding 'cross a mirror

Of our ever-twisting fate

Over and over

Above and below
Will you pity us
When we're here alone?

Over and over
Around and around
Will you pity us

When we've run aground?

Careless and indifferent

We fail to watch the tide
Creeping up our bow of luxury
Inside we sit without a word

For fear
Of what we might hear ourselves say
And then we'd have to change

Cover the picture
Turn away your gaze
