A perfect place for rebirth

Sitting near the sea I start to forget

Wave upon wave of dawn upon the shore

Erased the sandy tracks and let

Me hope to live once more.

Darkness faded too many times

For me to keep the night inside my heart

If I were guilty of some crime

Let each new day be a fresh start.

Wave upon wave of dawn upon the shore

My breath faded in the lullaby

And I decided to live once more

To drown and surface in the sky

Where clouds curl as seashells blue

Lying on the beach, abandoned by the tide

I felt ancient, yet shiny and new

As above me salty seagulls cried.

Contrary winds once tore me apart

And storms raged inside my mind

For too long lost in my own heart.

You held my hand, eyes so kind

Waves upon waves of dawn upon the shore

You made me a lucky paper crane

And allowed me to live once more

For this life is too much pain.

Child of the sea I always came home

In times of doubt or difficulty.

Throw me lifeless in the foam

Home in that breathless eternity

I shed my skin, step out from who I used to be

And lie to dry beneath the blushing sun

Wave upon wave of dawn upon the shore

Smiling you hand me the loaded gun

And allow me to live once more.
