Riding the Crest

You search your mind

That’s what it’s there for

Check all the whys’

And all the wherefores’

In your mind

You’re tall and brave

Riding the crest

Of a high and beautiful wave

You make your movements known

And where you want to be

And everybody knows

That’s how it’s got to be

In the sheltered morning sun

In the sheltered morning sun

Internally

You make your own rules

You’ll have excuses

The ones that you choose

In the end

You deem unsafe;

Riding the crest

Of a high and beautiful wave

You make your movements known...

There comes a time

You don’t even know what’s missing

Some sugar to make the pill go down

You need a line

A push in the right direction

The sugar that makes the pill go down

True

True to form

True to pre-existing norms

Truly wasted

At a rave

Riding the crest

Of a high and beautiful wave
