Opus Lyrics
"On The Surface"

Like a spider on the water
- like a sdteamboat on the sea
Like the rocks in whiskey - soda
- I am swimmin' on the surface
Like a wave upon the ocean
- like a leaf on a pool
Like the reason on emotion
- I am swimmin' on the surface

I'm tryin' to get closer to
- I try to break those walls
In vain, I push but can't get through
- I fail to touch your soul
I'dlike to see inside the case
- I'd like to find what counts
Instead I hide behind my face
- I'm driftin' round and round
On the surface

Like a lightbeam fromm a mirror
- like a hammer from a string
Like an arrow from a hero
- I'm rebounding from the surface
Like a head through a brickwall
- like a sound through a deaf man's ear
Like the truth through a sick soul
- I can't pierce through the surface

I'm tryin' to get...

Like a spider on the water
- like a steamboat on the sea
Like the rocks in whiskey - soda
- like ideas I don't agree to
Like a tree trunk on the river
- like a bottle on a creek
Alike doubt that can't touch believers
- I am swimmin' on the surface

Right now I must get closer to
- I have to break those walls
I'll push and shove til I get through
- til I can feel your soul
I wanna see inside the case
- I wanna find what counts
I'll cease to hide behind my face
- enough or driftin'round
On the surface
