Song 9, written on February 9, 2022.

A variation on the one-note melody.

Life can be overwhelming.

Korg SV-1, Rickenbacker 4003s, Tama Club Jam.

lyrics

The river seems to flow no matter where I go
I can feel the undertow, dragging me down below
And when I try to stand, I sink into the sand
I can see the water rise

A momentary gaze that seems to last for days
A life in disarray, just floating in the haze
I try to understand the power of my hands
And I can feel the water rise

How can I dry my eyes
When everything around me dies
How can I soar into the empty skies
When I feel the waters rise

A solitary life is not what I designed
I persevere despite being left behind
When everything I planned is buried in the sand
I will feel the waters rise

How can I dry my eyes
When everything around me dies
How can I soar into the empty skies
When I feel the waters rise
