Sunset Psalm

360 scan and I caught the starboard side

The sun-kissed cheeks, two friends and my wife

Cutting through their existential eyes and everyone feels it

The sun is low, crimson colours are bright

The sea mist particles refract the evening light

Lift your head, no one tries to fight the unofficial congregation

Fell in love with this coral coast

Had a nomadic life, but it chose to host a piece of me

Now I feel close to forgiving

Made me kick the damn cigarettes

Thirty feet down's where I feel best

And the stillness provides a welcome rest from my breathing

There's nothing quite like riding over waves

One after the next, but no two the same

Even the mountain dwellers came, they all got it

Five more minutes till the feelings gone

The mainland grows and the race is on

If I saw the light and I saw my mum, I'd be running

(I saw the light)

(I saw the light)

(I saw the light)

And I beg you, shake and wake me, this feeling can't be real

Check me in the institution of psilocybin pills

I surrendered to the leader to guide me through my days

I'll float upon the currents and blow it all away

No words are said, but the script is real

If you bottled it up, be a million dollar deal

All it took was the Queensland salt to heal

Just five more minutes till the feeling's gone

When the mainland grows and the race is on

I saw the lights and I heard the song and I'm singing

I saw the light and I'm running

I saw the light

I saw the light and I'm running

I saw the light and I'm running

I saw the light

I saw the light and I'm running

(I saw the light)
