dolphins call across the ocean waves
searching for lovers gone adrift
searching for others left behind in murky waters
that will never reveal the current flowing ever away
and yet it seems all other currents speed from the vortex swirling all around
never realizing the seas fill in behind from fresh water rivers
while the blinders of broken hearts create pockets of lonliness even in water
as deep as mountains that fall to the ocean floor
where volcanos vomit blood and steam that turn paradise to Hell
and when they crawled up onto the land to escape their pain
it followed them like a slimey blob of parasites
that grew legs just to remind us that love is as fleeting
as the echoes of our songs that get drowned out in the plague of sound
we once relied on to bring us back together when we seperared in the past
and now we can't remember the sound of our love song when we called out to each other
the harmony is split into solo voices off key and out of sync
