OVERSEAS

running down my body
it's an electric breeze
forgotten dreams have haunted me for years
now I'm rowing overseas
waiting for the breeze to cease
I wonder where you're hiding now.
what if I found you on the next island?
close to the route of my thoughts
I asked the sky, no answers
just another day of rain, I know.

I can still hear you, sense you
fear you and it hurts
what time has foretold me for years
I've tried to invent a distance
but it's much worse than yesterday
I wonder how far is home in this night
I don't want to find you on a different island
you who mark the route of my thoughts
I'll ask the seas not to answer while
a tidal wave will take me home
[back to port stoned].

(I don't even remember why I wrote this, maybe I don't even like it, but it's built around the Bminor chord and only God knows how I love it, there are thousands of waves in that motherfucking chord)
