opel

on a distant shore, miles from land
stands the ebony totem in ebony sand
a dream in a mist of gray
on a far distant shore
the pebble that stood alone
and driftwood lies half buried
warm shallow waters sweep shells
so the cockles shine

a bare winding carcass, stark
shimmers as flies scoop up meat, an empty way
dry tears
crisp flax squeaks tall reeds
make a circle of gray in a summer way, around man
stood on ground

i'm trying
i'm trying to find you!
to find you
i'm living, i'm giving,
to find you, to find you,
i'm living, i'm living,
i'm trying, i'm giving

and i'm wondering who could be writing this song

watching this makes me feel so sad

shine on

remember when you were young, you shone like the sun
shine on you crazy diamond
now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky
shine on you crazy diamond
you were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze
come on you target for faraway laughter,
come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine

__________________________

you reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon
shine on you crazy diamond
threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light
shine on you crazy diamond
well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
rode on the steel breeze
come on you raver, you seer of visions,
come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine

________________________

nobody knows where you are, how near or how far
shine on you crazy diamond
pile on many more layers and i'll be joining you there
shine on you crazy diamond
and we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph,
sail on the steel breeze
come on you boy child, you winner and loser,
come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine
