Two Fires and an Angry Sea
An unfinished song.
Two fires and an angry sea set me forth from the haven that had cradled me,
Made me long for a love that I’d have never believed in if I’d stayed.
Still I search but I don’t know anymore, will I be happy if I find what I’m looking for?
And I don’t look in the mirror because I know what I’ll see: two fires and an angry sea.
How do you tell a story to an audience that doesn’t hear?
And though I know I’m not ready for the things I don’t have
I die a little each day from the wanting so bad
Two fires and an angry sea burned a hole in my soul and drowned the best part of me
And I try to fill the void with the words that I sing but the pit remains.
I look but in my heart i don’t believe anymore that I’m ever gonna find what I’ve been searching for,
And I know now what I am but I don’t know what it means: I am two fires and an angry sea.
Two fires and an angry sea.

crotchety to sad all in one day demonstrates range of emotions. You are still sane. Maybe. Is this song for ukelele? All these minor chords…I don’t know.
when’s a good Saturday to come over for lunch and sit on the curb. Play some ukelele songs with your aging uncle?
