Where the Wave Broke - Burst

(A promise to betray

A betrayal to remember)

Where the wave broke

And flushed us back

Back into the sea

Could have carried us farther

Mired only by ourselves

Horizon glowed in morning

Through vile was our resolve

Where the wave broke

And flushed us back

Back into the sea

Would have brought a haven

Sadness, that bitter failure

Night’s embrace was colder

As the stars lit

One by one

Where the wave broke

And flushed us back

Back into the sea

A memory rejected

Rejection was the promise

Should have gazed beyond

Ashen clouds that covered

Saw us huddle

Fearing

That bloated bastard sunrise
