"The Parting Sea"

I'm playing a dangerous game
Where someone is bound to get hurt
Once feelings are involved
You no longer have control

Emotions ride high
Like waves during the day,
But at night
They come crashin' on shore

This band on my left hand
Signifies commitment
Till death do us part
But life brought us apart

Who's to blame when your heart strays and your love parts ways?

When I can't look into your eyes
and comfort my soul.
When the presence of a stranger
is overshadowing yours.

We both cheated on love
Neglecting each other's needs,
So an affair
Doesn't sound so unfair to me

Our silence speaks in volumes
As seashells echo the ocean
It's pain that echoes my soul

I'm playing a dangerous game
Where someone is bound to get hurt
Once feelings are involved
You no longer have control

Emotions ride high
Like waves during the day,
But at night
They come crashin' on shore
