Oceans

Oceans of time
Yours and mine
The things we lost
Home left behind
In death we live
Stuck in this place
No windows or doors
No sign of a trace
Of what we wanted
Of what we wished
Whitewashed walls
Walking fish
Smiling chairs
With faces I missed
No sky for us
No time for us

Never wanted this
Never asked for this
I can't handle this
Alone here with you

Sight without eyes
Passage of time toys with dried blood
Accused of this crime
The water is high
Hair floats in its tide
The waves of our past
Paid with a dime
Where pennies won't do
And truths coming through
The worth of a soul
Given to you
