Waves Do Roar Lyrics

Within the tumultuous waves do roar

In my mind insist that I am an astronaut

Hypersonic astronomic flight

A swift life met its fate

Omnipresent the heavens in hues of black and blue

Yet adorned with shades of pink purple and gold

Vaporous water phantoms drift

At sunrise's glow the fire of a new day's birth

In the nascent dawn a combustion of hope engirth

Yet for me no hope dost gleam

A gleaming orb emerged before my craft

Too fast to alter course

I met it in a clash

My spacecraft and I transmuted

Into a fiery cascade

My vessel's now smoke and molten metal

Yet I feel the ground beneath my feet

I know I'm not alive

Yet somehow still living

Defined by the ghosts of repetition

Memories anchor me persisting

She lingers ever in my musings

Imagination the creative pyre

Put you into my arms

Embraced with love and desire

Mine realm is one of ceaseless fluttering of tiny wings

Encompassed by constant minuscule zephyrs a life granulated

Consumed by the allure of luminance

Cocoons and caterpillars poised to stir at my behest

What have I become a vessel for the night?

A shadowed figure veiled in flying insects' flight

My skin and muscles undulating and loose

Are not my own yet they enact my bidding

A puppetry of sinews a form unwritten

Amidst this dance a spectral sight unfurls

A swarm of moths shaped like a man in twirls

In shadows deep where starlight's tender gleam

A man of moths his essence like a dream

When words come and go inside his ghostly head

Echoes tales of the past are tread
