The Ocean At The End of The Lane

Verse 1
Foot on the pedal
Hands gripped to the wheel
Singular focus on the belief of relief
Dreams surround me like a captive
A captive of my subconscious
Struggling as I sleep
Dancing with shadows
Shadows of my former self
Their records are the only sounds I hear

Verse 2
Dissolver of secrets
Purifier of bodies
Wholeness will flood into me
And that's what I'll be forevermore
As clear and hopeful as the sky
The sky of possibilities
I won't dance with shadows
Shadows of my former self
Their records will fall on deaf ears

Verse 3
What seemed endless has a finishing point
The fire of longing will no longer ravage my core
The shadows will disappear
Shadows of my former self
The ocean is calling me
Loudly, clearly

Chorus
As wide as the universe
The cure that's been hidden from me
I'll immerse myself in the ocean
The ocean at the end of the lane
Another world is waiting
Waiting for me to form a connection to it
A connection to the ocean at the end of the lane
