Elegy

Into the ebb

Into the flow

Seasick beyond control

While earth lies still

Giving no answers

I’m rocking to and fro

Where to go

Subside tranquilly

This song is sung silently

And ode to mediocrity

The soundtrack to shame

Subside tranquilly

This song is an elegy

If I can’t find clarity

There’s nothing to say

Into abundance

Yet with disdain

How to find the words to explain

The sweetest poison

Is never sweet enough

To ease the throbbing pain

Wash it away

Subside tranquilly

This song is sung silently

And ode to mediocrity

The soundtrack to shame

Subside tranquilly

This song is an elegy

If I can’t find clarity

There’s only escape

Come raging sea, wash me away

Let me drown in you, seize the pain

Subside tranquilly

I can’t sing this silently

And I can’t seem to find peace

Keep wasting my days

Subside tranquilly

This song is an elegy

I’m losing my dignity

I thirst for a change

I’m waiting for the sea

To wash it all away

Wash it away

Make it okay

Subside tranquilly

This song is sung silently

This song is an elegy

Meant to ease the pain

Subside tranquilly

Within lives the enemy

Within lies the remedy

I’ll be okay
