lyrics
There was a boy who stood by a vast sea. He said, “Make me a wave; that’s all I desire to be.” But the sea made no reply, and the waves would not take him that night. So he walked back on the sand black as night, while the shells blushed in the fading light. With one hand over his eyes and the other hand over his cries, he walked into the night. Then a man called out from above he said, “Son, climb! I swear there’s something above.” With a quick shift of the hand and a sharp squint of the eye the boy faced the cliff and started to climb. But when he reached, when he reached out for the man, and their eyes exchanged the lies of a first glance, well the man pulled his hand back from the boy, and left him a precipice, on a cliff forlornned. What is there to do when you find yourself alone on a cliff with no home? Well, the stars opened their eyes, and began to watch the show unfold that night. The boy, he began to speak. It started slow and soft and quiet and meek. He said, “I just want so bad to not be a burden. I don’t trust your love. I don’t trust myself.”
Then the boy, he jumped into belief. And he fell fast as the water falls free. And when he met where waters leap, I swear he turned wave to an infinite beach.
