Faceless

Lying here on
the sand again.  
Dark all around  
but I can hear the water    
crashing down.  
I'm no longer an ocean wave.  
No more push or pull.  
   
Trying hard to remember  
everything I forgot.  
But just like the moon    
you're faceless now.  
   
Never thought you'd fade.  
So glad you stayed    
away from me.  
No longer a memory.  
Your power dissolved so fast.    
Like a shooting star    
about to blast.  
   
Trying hard to remember  
everything I forgot  
but just like the moon  
you're faceless now.  
   
Time to get off this  
sand and take my  
ass back home.  
You see, I  met someone new.  
He's the opposite of you.  
You're the moon,    
he's the sun.  
   
Love when my baby  shines on me.  
I know I won't get burned.  
Love when my baby shines on me  
Cause this time I finally learned.  
   
Trying hard to remember  
everything I forgot.  
But just like the moon  
your faceless now.  
   
Love when my baby  shines on me.  
I know I won't get burned.  
Love when my baby shines on me  
Cause this time I finally learned.
