July 2013: Water of Life

by Underwear Everywhere

we’re going away… deep in the rain, away from the rays that hurt from the sun we cried for so long, the rivers will run i felt through my veins the wind from the fall some will be believe they’re destined to be the voice from their dreams, the one that you need from oceans of love, this water creeps in your brain i’m already gone, this song will always change our tears from the past, the firsts and the lasts, determines this ghost, the one that you know die in a field, and then you’ll carry me away slowly drift into infinite space let science tempt me wherever i stray i’m already gone, this song will always change (extend my life, so i can breathe. save my soul in my dream) become the sea, the death for me

A simple truth Found supple youth, To heal the bruise: Everyone gets a scar. Days of skinned knees Have come and gone, Oh please, I just got one in my thirties. Just when I thought I could feel the breeze, I fell with a thud Like all the tall trees. Same as before Go and wash with water. Like a sin to my skin, It’s getting hotter. Time tucked away Takes a look. Just a moment to say From a babbling brook Making life giving waters, Will forever supply? Static chatter matters; There’s no reason to cry. I re-wash By the cloth From the Holy Father. What grows under scabs? The will to win With some new fodder. Yes my kids will wander. May even get burned Earn the seed And the need Life will feed From all the same waters too.

When I was three I almost drowned in the ocean Somebody pulled me from the water and put life into me. Is something running wild in your memories? Maybe you'll find a trace of salt. There's always a storm coming. Water is heavy. When I was fourteen, a neighbor kissed me in the rain. He said don't tell anyone he's seeing me. We're so good at hiding what we need. Is something running wild in your memories? Maybe you'll find a trace of salt. There's always a storm coming. Water is heavy. They say we'll be taken by the flood before everything dries up. But for now I'm holding your hand by the river. Is something running wild in your memories? Maybe you'll find a trace of salt. There's always a storm coming. Water is heavy.

You've got sore feet A view of the sea A window seat He's watching your eyes in the mirror on the ceiling. You wanted to forget already But your head is spinning... (Second guessing everyone, most of all myself) You wanted to make sense of this You wanted to end up in the sunset But you've got no hope for that Just jumped off bridges Fogged up glasses You had to go there You had to stay there I float above the waves
