Members ghaw2007 Posted April 2, 2018 Author Members Share Posted April 2, 2018 Surfacing Verse 1: Whitest **** open up and reveal your great mystery / I've heard many rumours about you / And I want some clarification / Do you lean on the side of Marilyn Monroe or Margaret Thatcher? / Do you dance with everything you sweep up in your presence? / Are you the one to bestow afterglow on regular fellows? / Do you beat the heat by letting the freak class wash your feet? / Do you conjure up inventions with your breath and sounds? / Are you quiet when the inner riots erupt among the youth? / Do you earn a wage in the cage built by the big machine? Verse 2: Caught between minor existences and a glorious world / From far the most spectacular light that could easily blind me / Trying to grip onto anything that could eradicate my brokenness / I'd like to run across your warm beaches whole and complete / To be a star in your galaxies of pleasure would be breathtaking / An out of body experience beyond my wildest dreams / A moment you could freeze in time / For me to savour continuously Verse 3: If I'm offered to breathe in your pure air / I'd gladly accept it / My lungs would be fully-formed as I'm being revitalized / Every inch of skin would be removed painlessly / I'd be shielded from the harsh environments of my old ways / This unrealized state of being / Would decorate empty spaces that have occupied my core / And taken control of my senses / I'm situated in a position that could go either way / A reality that could be a living perfection / Or a living nightmare Bridge: Sometimes it seems like I'm close to where I should be / There are no wise voices to guide me along the way / If I continue to subscribe to nonsensical notions / I won't break through the desires which surround me Chorus: They say that eyes are windows to the soul / If I stare long enough, I'll know everything about you / I'd be mesmerized and inspired to be deep inside of you / To swim across your cool and vibrant oceans of wonder / To transform myself into a unique and significant being / I want to tell you / That I spend the bland days of my life / Surfacing on your nature / But I don't know how / This unusual excitement is strong enough / That I'll break if it can't live outside of me Written by B.
