Float (2006)

The wind will never calm the seas,
And nothing can stop the tide.
So stop all your yelling please,
And give chance for reply.

You are so afraid of me,
And defend with mighty might.
And so you appear to be attacking me,
I hope you'll feel alright.

Your living scales off balance,
Swinging from high to high.
There is no peace at either end.
Try to find calm tonight.

It's a life of give and take,
Back and forth it goes.
Nothing will ever stop it.
Its the moon that makes it so.

So step away from day to day,
Look from outside the waves,
Accept it as its always been,
And have some peace today.

Never resist what is,
But take is as a friend,
Good and Bad; There are no such things.
The journey is within.

Float,
Don't sink,
Don't swim.
