That at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate. That's the world's greatest lie." - Paulo Coelho

Walking towards the ocean
What can go wrong
Soft sand between my toes
My skin crawls

The air is crisp
Under the moon
Feet hit the water
The undertow pulls

The Ocean's making room
For someone new
Body temperature grows cold
Head goes under to

Drowning in the ocean
What can go wrong
Singing in my head
Your wasted song
