[ The Sounds Of The Ocean Are Soooo Relaxing ]
[ Being In The City Is Overly Taxing ]

[ Imagining The Waves Is Very Soothing ]
[ It’s Your Stress ]
[ That It’s Smoothing ]

[ Wave After Wave Comes Crashing In ]
[ You Know Where It Ends ]
[ But You Have No Idea Where They Begin ]

[ Is It Way Way Out There In The Middle? ]
[ If You Were Dumped In That Water ]
[ You Would Be As Visible ]
[ As A Thimble ]

[ In A Pile Of Hay ]
[ You’d Never Want To Die That Way ]

[ Back To Soothing Your Mind ]
[ You Will Think Of The Waves ]
[ When You Are In A Bind ]

[ & Remember The Sounds ]
[ But There Will Be No Boats, No Sailing, No Cruises ]
[ You Feet Will Be Planted Firmly On Dry Ground ]

[ Waves Are An Amazing & Oftentimes Frightful Act Of Nature ]
[ If There Ever Would Be A Time That You Turn Your Back
To The Ocean ]
[ You Would Not See, Hear Or Sense The Danger ]

[ That You Put Yourself In ]
[ You Will Not Know That You Were About To Fight For Your Life ]
[ With A Force Of Nature That Usually Wins ]

[ Sneaker Waves Can Come In About Three-Stories High ]
[ You Wouldn’t Even Have The Time ]
[ To Wave Goodbye ]

[ When It Crashes Over You & Pushes You Down Into The Sand ]
[ All It Wants To Do ]
[ Is Pull Me Away From Dry Land ]

[ As You Frantically Struggle To Survive ]
[ Your Will To Live ]
[ Keeps You Alive ]

[ When You’re Able To Run To The Sand That’s Dry ]
[ & Say That You Weren’t Scared ]
[ Your Eyes Would Tell Everyone That Was A Lie ]

[ Then You Thought (WHAT SHOULD I HAD EXPECTED?) ]
[ (WHEN THE OCEAN FELT DISRESPECTED?) ]

[ Then You Sat There, With A Tear In Your Eye ]
[ That A Careless Mistake ]
[ Almost Caused You To Die ]

[ As Memories Of Your Life Flashed ]
[ You Heard The Water Splash ]

[ You Just Thought ]

[ It’s Kind Of Sad As You Watched The Waves Come To An End ]
[ The Waves Really Showed ]
[ That Water Can Break & Bend ]
