RIDE THE WAVE

The beginning may be 
A virtual hurricane
And you're truly drowning 
With the onslaught of pain

Loss is the greatest storm 
You’ll ever suffer through
But enduring it is possible
If you believe in you

When you’re fed up with the winds
Always crashing through your mind
It’s time to grab a surfboard
And ride…

~~~*Chorus*~~~
Ride the wave
Overcome the storm 
Pounding you apart
Ride the wave
Storms don’t last forever 
Neither will your broken heart
Surf like a Champion
Don’t be the Typhoon’s slave
Overcome the storm 
Ride the wave
Ride the wave
~~*~~

You believe, within the uproar
Your screams remain unheard
That serenity’s beyond your reach
While misery is at its worst

You must deal with the demon
The eye of the storm
Overcome thee obstacles
Learn to ride the board
Ride the wave...

~~~*2nd Chorus*~~~
Ride the wave
Overcome the storm 
Pounding you apart
Ride the wave
Storms don’t last forever 
Neither will your broken heart
Surf like a Champion
Don’t be the Typhoon’s slave
Overcome the storm 
Ride the wave
~~*~~

~~~* Musical Bridge*~~~ 

~~~*Finale*~~~
Once you have it mastered
And you’re no longer scared
When the winds rise up again
At least you’ll be prepared
~~*~~

With every gain there will be pain
That wants to pull you back
Don’t let the tides of guilt
Control your life like that 
Ride the wave
Ride the wave
Ride the wave
~~*~~
