Sore

Staring sideways at the sun
Surfing short-waves for a sign of something, anything
Sifting sand through sweaty hands
You second guess your shifting stands again, but then

She'll submerge your sunken splendor
Her stretched out sunny smile makes you soar
She surrounds your shrunken shadow
Her sad surreal sighs make you sore

Stumbling, shaking, sick as sin
You shred your sloppy second hand smoke screen
Slowly sinking like a stone
That slurping sound as you're sucked down again
But then…

She'll submerge your sunken splendor
Her stretched out sunny smile makes you soar
She surrounds your shrunken shadow
Her sad surreal sighs make you sore

And so suspend some disbelief
And shrug your shoulders, save your soul some grief
Or slither softly like a snake
And shed your slimy, scaly skin again, what then?

She'll submerge your sunken splendor
Her stretched out sunny smile makes you soar
She surrounds your shrunken shadow
Her sad surreal sighs make you sore
