Paradise is nothing but sand

in my soul
still, still waters run deep
a kingdom
lies somewhere buried beneath
a king
holds court among empty gardens
contemplating
the night he fell to sunken shores

two ships passing
waves came crashing on those on deck
down below a queen
her eyes forests of true green
from the land of illyria
her heart as pure as her hair silken

missing soul return
exhale and feel your spirit rise
breathe in this world
exhaling again my insides soar

in my heart
raging waters rush, rush
lost at sea
truly confused without compass
pray to you i pray to god
i just thought?
we still crashed
i guess love we all forgot

two ships crashing
the jolly roger tattered on high
what was it all for?
such a romantic war
over before it began
alone now here in my garden of sand
