Ebb n Flow

This is a song/poem I've written... felt like sharing today...




The translucence of a rain drop, the opaque feeling when it hits your eye
How a life can look up for hope and really believe hope floats in the sky
But is the source actually deep down, in the midst of our hearts, all the way inside?
Is that where our hope lives? Does it flow to our brains, fuel the burn of life?

because when it flows (it knows where to go)
with no eyes

when it flows (it floods right through)
ebb and does not rise

until we flow (it knows where to go)
With no eyes

until we flow…
it just goes...

So many reasons to look up, politicians, bureaucrats, governments and lies
So many reasons to lose hope, but somehow we find this comfort in the sky
Despite the water that flows through us and the full moon that glows at night
We still lay down to sleep, unlike the tides, we do not rise

until we flow (we know where to go)
with no eyes

until we flow (it floods right through)
ebb and do not rise

until we flow (we know where to go)
ebb and does not rise

until we flow..
we just go…



Ebb and flow…

there's and ebb n flow to our life

Ebb and flow...

there's an ebb n flow to our life

we ebb and flow...

... we just do.


Here's the song...

    very good songwriting... i love the pararaph above and the ending lyrics... the whole song ... where we find hope, and how we risk losing it...
