I am zero but yet in a test
You are zero go home and rest

The world screams of how much it needs a zero
Although a little it cries for a lost hero

Battles are for the things we want the most
but they are always won and also lost

We have things or they have us
For we take none of what's around us

A lost boat seeks the direction at any price
if you want to be lost, please think twice

Have I told you about the dream I had before
and the feelings that made me dream some more

Strange is the kingdom of silence
It may give relief or cause violence

I've never got bored of the cold sea
but the cold weather never encourages me

The sand sticks to my wind and puts me down
and for a bird's sake I get to be a clown

Laugh at the faces that have no words
but beware of shadows that look like swords

Claim I hurt you and claim you're dead
call it the truth if that's what's said

I never talk unless you need
but once I do you may not proceed

In my silence, I smile and move
In my defense, you hide in a cove

Have I melt the ice that you appreciate
or wasted the gold that you syndicate
