Strapped to a chair,
Trapped by my own mind,
Looking at the open entryway
With demons dancing in my head
...
It was a warm summer night in LA, August '69,
A single night of infamy and psychic darkness for mankind.
Sharon Tate was close to fulfilling her empty outcries,
when the night burned its cloak in the sunrise.
...
All alone in the darkness, feeling empty
where the land meets the sea.
I look back on a memory
of that summer place
...
Killin' time, sipping' whiskey
sittin' at a bar on the boardwalk by the sea
the jukebox keeps on playin' the image of love
and it takes me back to when I first saw you
...
In the distance, by the lake's edge,
beneath the day's twilight, the water
echoes a calm feeling.
The cob and his pen float in rhythm,
...
The seabirds circle above the darkened water,
beholding the water's repelling betrayal.
The flightless penguins without sweaters
struggle for survival,
...
The oasis held their cravings,
escaping from the clamor and bustle
of the heartless reality.
...
Standing in silence,
where land meets the sea,
I have come to talk to you again,
with unspoken words of love,
...
Waiting, longing for love, slowed time.
Quietly sitting dormant like a volcano,
the slow pace of time tormented my soul.
I failed to see the signs appearing before my eyes.
