The Riddle

Seems like the rain hates my guts
This ain't goodbye
There's more in life than just survive
Show me why

Rest assured, I will leave the shore
Must hold onto this
An old childhood's riddle, alive
What you once taught me

As the mouth lies where the heart is
I am to tell you (safely sail away)
As the love lies where the hurt is we fight
Lost is where the shore is
One final pass and we will meet again

Wandering through rivers of sand
Heat killed by nighttime
Watched the brightest sunset
I have ever seen

Eyes tell me no more what I see
Back to what you taught me

As the mouth lies where the heart is
I am to tell you (safely sail away)
As the love lies where the hurt is we fight
Lost is where the shore is
One final pass and we will meet again

So we made us a promise
We will meet again
Stay safe, protect
Keep your promise
Come back
Send me back to you

Refill on my innocence
A drought in dust
I'm ready for the ferryman
Take me with

When our lights still shine
Off we go, set sail tonight
Sailing through the dark where light can never hide
Sing me what you taught me

As the mouth lies where the heart is
I am to tell you (safely sail away)
As the love lies where the hurt is we fight
Lost is where the shore is
One final pass and we will meet again
