GOLDEN TIDE

"Golden Tide" is a song about the last half hour before the sun goes under.

A golden roar of the sea sweeps her chest away without warning.
The wind unravels her damp bangs, and the whiteness of the waves brings the light along.
She had forgotten a sunset could be this color.

Yesterday's shadows dissolve into the tide, all of them, just as they are.
She doesn't put her hesitation down. She carries it, and lets the water take it gently.

A 124 BPM sixteen-beat, a DX7 electric piano, a wall of stacked voices.
The song is at its brightest where she lets her voice fly toward the setting sun.

A tide going out is not a tide disappearing.
