Washing away the pain in my heart.
Let the tide pull me under and push me down,
Forcing the breath from my sobbing throat.
Let the sand cover me completely ,
Hiding the wounds which adorn me.
Let the salt wash over my eyes,
Tearing from them the tears I've cried.
Let the sun beat down upon my head,
Erasing the memories of what's been done.
Let the kelp entangle my legs,
Keeping me from running away.
Let the beach consume all that is me,
Killing me, Stealing me, Destroying me,
Saving me.

Let the waves come up and over me,
Washing away the pain in my heart.
Let the tide pull me under and push me down,
Forcing the breath from my sobbing throat.
Let the sand cover me completely ,
Hiding the wounds which adorn me.
Let the salt wash over my eyes,
Tearing from them the tears I've cried.
Let the sun beat down upon my head,
Erasing the memories of what's been done.
Let the kelp entangle my legs,
Keeping me from running away.
Let the beach consume all that is me,
Killing me, Stealing me, Destroying me,
Saving me.
