Into
the Maelstrom
A wreath of silver on your
hair
Glistening surf from
everywhere
Grab my hand and be assured
We won’t be denied
Any of our promises
You’ll wake up by my side
Your pulse is pumping in our
palms
All you fear is all we know
The universe’s exit door
Gaping mouth below
Into the Maelstrom
The final leap of faith at
last
Together we can change the
past
But as the boundless firmament
Turning pitch black blue
Starts closing in around us
now
Something’s shining through
A flawless constellation
The moment’s come to redefine
The concept of serenity
I’ll be all yours and make you
mine
Your pulse is pumping in our
palms
All you fear is all we know
The universe’s exit door
Gaping mouth below
With bated breath, you show
your face
All that matters comes undone
The whirling vortex calls us
down
(But) you gravitate towards
the sun
Doubt is dancing in your eyes
And seething in your soul
Eradicating paradise
Swallowing you whole
Your tears beg for forgiveness
In disbelief, I turn away
The elements between our lives
As everything turns into spray
Into the Maelstrom
