about

This is another song i wrote in Uruguay. which was a pretty anxious and self analytical time for me. Somehow it cut through to the bone of what I was feeling at the time. It's about our internal emotional pendulum.

lyrics

WAVES

Here come the waves, crashing down
Crashing on me, waves of despair

I was happy in the haze of my oblivion
Sweet thoughts of opportune emotions
Like a school boy waiting for September
On the verge of a breakthrough

Then came the waves, crashing down
Crashing on me, waves of despair

Single file, all my problems are approaching
Am I the puppet or the master?
Hold tight while I sink into oblivion
Am i the prophet of my own disaster?

Dive into the waves, ride the waves
Get a grip on the waves, ride the waves
