I dive into the deep—into the sea inside of me.

Deas Vail - Shoreline (Kingdom of Hearts Video)


So you say I'm better off here,
as dry as the shoreline in an ocean of fear.
And so you say that I can’t be alive

Until there is nothing when we’re meeting eyes
Again
And day by day I wander these halls,
And you’re casting a shadow onto every wall.
And all the way you ring in my ear,
from the moment I knew you were leaving me here.
You were leaving me here.
You were leaving me here.
You were leaving me here.

This give and take, this waiting on time
It’s this twisted up memory that I can’t unwind.
These fragile words that fall from my mouth
And I’m crumbling and crowded, but I’ve figured you out.
I've figured you out.
I've figured you out.
I've figured you out.

The shoreline calls the sea
For simple words and company,
But words go on and on,
Till they collide and all is gone.
I dive into the deep—into the sea inside of me
To find another song,
To find a place where I belong.

The shoreline calls the sea
For simple words and company,
But words go on and on,
Till they collide and all is gone.
I dive into the deep—into the sea inside of me
To find another song,
To find a place where I belong.

I dive into the deep—into the sea inside of me
To find another song,
To find a place where I belong.


As you glance around at all the faces, you'd be uninterested.
They hardly know each other, or anyone else.
Some point into blank space, some talk to themselves.
Some abandoned, some just simply ended up there.
Some lead normal lives before, some born like that.

As you glance around at all the faces, you'd be wondering.
How they once were like you and I.
Having friends, having a family.
Able to confide to someone, able to joke with someone.
Able to be loved, able to receive concern.

As you glance around at all the faces, you'd be sad.
At how you wish you could help, but there's so little you can do.
All you can do for them is sing, all you can do them is dance.
All you can do for them is playing pass the parcel, all you can do for them is clap along.
How they're like birds locked up in a cage, just dying for acceptance from society.

As you glance around at all the faces, you'd be afraid.
That one day you might end up like them, that you might lose everyone you know.
That one day people will look unto you with pity, that you would be feared.
That people will never take you seriously, that you would not even recognise yourself.

As you glance around at all the faces, you'd appreciate.
All that you have presently.

This was my day at Sunlove.


Peace and love,
Lewis
