In the Shape of a Wave
I found my fate
In the shape of a wave.
My anchor didn’t hold in the storm,
now I’m drifting out the bay…
Age,
I feel the weight of an age.
I don’t want to carry all the years around,
but I’m getting older by the day.
I’m afraid of the day
when everything I’m built upon will change.
I cried for the pain of doubt,
wearing at my heart ’til it wore it out;
with nothing left to care about,
I couldn’t make a sound!
So let go the mooring ropes,
and farewell this little boat;
there’s no preparation you can make
that the currents won’t confound!
I’m afraid of the day
when everything I’m built upon will change.
It’s a dark new day,
It’s a brave new day,
and there’s no escape.
