In physics, a wave is a disturbance or oscillation that travels through spacetime, accompanied by a transfer of energy. Wave motion transfers energy from one point to another, often with no permanent displacement of the particles of the medium—that is, with little or no associated mass transport. They consist, instead, of oscillations or vibrations around almost fixed locations. Waves are described by a wave equation which sets out how the disturbance proceeds over time. The mathematical form of this equation varies depending on the type of wave.
There are two main types of waves. Mechanical waves propagate through a medium, and the substance of this medium is deformed. The deformation reverses itself owing to restoring forces resulting from its deformation. For example, sound waves propagate via air molecules colliding with their neighbors. When air molecules collide, they also bounce away from each other (a restoring force). This keeps the molecules from continuing to travel in the direction of the wave.

is it real?
or is it just
my mind?
turn the key
open your door
don't make believe
You can't fight a war with nobody to fight back
But if we get to digging to the bottom of the stack
We'll sell it to the youth and you never know, maybe
You'll get back home and you'll see your baby, oh
We'll just act like we care
All we're needing is a reason
It don't need to be clear
Singing songs to the news
It can play to their fears
Someone's gotta' die and you don't have to love him
But the military's still got more in its budget, oh
We always need more next year
No one cares about the waves
At the bottom of the ocean
And at the bottom of the ocean
It's always blue
No one will remember
Cause nothing lasts forever
And everybody's looking
For somebody to use
When you don't bring them home and the war hasn't ended
There's still money there and that money needs spending
The powers that be, we gotta' do what we do
If they never know it than they'll never feel used, oh
Like I often do
To all the pretty girls out there looking for heartache
Crying, "All I wanted is to be your baby"
And all the pretty girls out there living with heartache
Crying cause they're never gonna' see their baby, oh
We just act like we care
No one cares about the waves
At the bottom of the ocean
And at the bottom of the ocean
It's always blue
No one will remember
Cause nothing lasts forever
And everybody's looking
For somebody to use
No one will remember
Cause nothing lasts forever
The world is always changing
And it's always blue
These gigantic waves just take me
To an unknown destination under the moonlight
Feel free to join me on my trip
The tide will take us far beyond midnight
Stars will guide us through this exotic white
Stars won't be able to fool the knowledge of the magic dice
This sea breeze is refreshing
While the dolphins sing about these psychedelic moods
These waves keep you going
'Til you finally forget your original roots
Stars will guide us through this exotic white
Stars won't be able to fool the knowledge of the magic dice
Wave after wave
Wave after wave
Wave after wave
And the Feelings that you cant ignorebreak like waves
onto the shore
and its tearing you apart
wondering if its the beginning of the end
or the end of the start
A walk on the beach, I rose for a speech
a lack of words leads you feeling awkwardly
you waited for the call that never came
the drama reminds you that seventeen brings pain.
And all the time I barely laughed and never cried at all
I never understood or had the will to try
and still I look the time to hit and never realized,
I wish I could have seen the world through sober eyes.
And the Feelings that you cant ignore
break like waves onto the shore
and its tearing you apart
wondering if its the beginning of the end
or the end of the start
A walk on the beach, I rose for a speech
a lack of words leads you feeling awkwardly
you waited for the call that never came
How is it I never see
The waves that bring me her words to me
for though unseen they drift around
they catch my breath and knock me down
I feel them quickly swirling by
As they withdraw with my reply
And slip into the dark of night
As I attemt to stay upright
Instead I'm stranded on my knees
As words depart upon the breeze
That quickly drifts away from here
And possibly won't reach her ear
If we could see the many waves
that flow through clouds and sunken caves
She'd sense at least the words that sought her
They crashed down here just a month ago
I shield my eyes with my hands as the wind blows
The smell of death, of dying, permeates the air
I squeeze my eyes shut - God, what happened here?
I see the waves crash down against the shore
And they wash away houses and homes and so much more
In my mind I hear screaming by both adults and kids
I jerk as a tear escapes through my eyelids
I didn't have to be here to feel the pain they felt
A relative doesn't have to die for my heart to melt
I may have been separated by oceans when they hit
But we're all humans, all of our hearts are tightly knit
Together, I know we can still help the ones who survived
A lot of people have died, but many more are still left
behind
There's a time to mourn and a time to plan and rebuild
Think about the ones who are alive, not the ones who've
been killed
I know it hurts all of us that this tragedy has struck
But we're humans, we're powerful, we're not sitting ducks
Put your hand in mine, and we'll stand together day after
Let's think about calm waters, and push the violent waves
The soil I'm lying on is cooling down with the vanishing daylight
And bitter are these tears in my eyes
They're slowly flowing down my cheek like glowing pearls
But those pearls are for the swine
The mind behind this weak body tries to isolate
Not willing to crystallize the reasons for my grief
I try to figure out how I came to this state
Where all the paths lead me just further from the light
Time flows on like a stream and passes the dead of the night
But it just pushes me further from delight
I feel my life sinking far too deep
When this self-deception won't let me fall asleep
The sky breathes black but still it shines
Like a halo upon my mental darkness
I'm bleak, cold and blond as the lack of will makes the waves roll in...
Here I ride again on these waves of misery
I'm all but sane as I close my eyes
The Watson Twins
Fire Songs
Waves
all these waves
are crashing in on me
am I just drifting in an endless sea
the sirens call out to me
enchanting creatures sing soft melodies
am I floating away
underwater whilst I begin to sway
all these lives
are crashing in on me
and everyone I used to be
is it she or she or me
the painted prism from a child's dream
the storybooks they told me differently
the happy ending sailing o'er from me
all these thoughts
are crashing in on me
and does this mean my restless mind will never sleep
I toss and turn just to see
and the sea began to breathe
and I can't make out what it means
am I further from the truth I seek
all these days
are crashing in on me
from one to another
memories
moments of joy and moments of pain
at this moment they're all the same
do these these tears fall from my eyes
are they real or just the rain from the skies
all these waves
all these waves
all these waves
Kind of thunder from my heart
Flooding my eyes
Kind of armies marching
Through my head
Sombre soldiers
From nowhere
Kind of someone's
Moving out of me
Have no fear
Going somewhere
Ship is leaving right on time
Empty harbour, wave goodbye
Evacuation of the isle
Caveman's paintings drowning
Famous last words on the air
I stay here and you are there
While our city softly sinks
Waves - and then goodbye
I live in a wafer thin dream.
I - I can't cry
you know the time
time's not kind.
But I remember the way we were
the slow
slow sad love.
I wonder
do you miss my love
I know you can't
It's just a wave passing over me.
What are these waves
they're comimg over me
it must be my destiny.
Waves
goodbye - goodbye - goodbye.
What are these waves
they're coming over me
The oceans calling out your name
And don't you hestitate
This could be your only
Escape
I'm already dead
I walk this place I used to love
Unable to fucking rest
I'd bury you alive
Underground to hide what it meant
A darkened soul
Is all that's left
And whispers of a past
Full of regret
I just want to spit in your face
Before they shut the casket
And don't you know
Your eyes they shine like stars
And maybe that's the reason I had to run so far
And if life dealt us another hand
Would you take another chance
Would you risk
Another broken romance
Your not the one I'll carry on
And soon you'll see
That the devil lurks inside of me
I wanna see your
Body hit the floor
Scream one more time for me
My gorgeous little whore
Your on own
It's time to settle the fucking score
I hope it kills you to
Hear my voice
I hope it brings you to
Your knees when you
Let's stay here today,
Stay here forever.
And bring on the rain.
With you, I've got cover.
When it's cold outside,
I know I'm not the only one alone.
And you're the only reason
Why I'll ever come back home.
Baby, let's turn it up now.
Turn me on, and turn it up now.
Baby, let's turn it up now.
Turn me on, and turn it up now.
I'm going crazy without you here lately.
I've been going crazy for you.
Crazy for you.
Breathe slow, I can feel your tremble.
Tonight, I'll listen and I'll follow.
My words skip, I fall, I crumble.
Don't say a word, 'cause I know.
Breathe slow, I can feel your tremble.
Tonight, I'll listen and I'll follow.
My words skip, I fall, I crumble.
Don't say a word, 'cause I know.
Baby, let's turn it up now.
Turn me on, and turn it up now.
Baby, let's turn it up now.
Turn me on, and turn it up now.
I'm going crazy without you here lately.
I've been going crazy for you.
Crazy for you.
I feel so lost at sea,
But know the wave that'll carry me back to saftey.
And I feel so lost at sea,
But you're the wave that'll carry me back to saftey.
Turn it up now.
Baby, let's turn it up now.
Turn me on, and turn it up now.
I'm going crazy without you here lately.
I've been going crazy for you.
Crazy for you.
Let's turn it up,
Let's turn it up now.
(Turn it up, turn it up)
Baby, let's turn it up.
(Turn it up, turn it up, up, up)
I'm going crazy, I'm going crazy,
I've been going crazy for you.
Why do I stand in dark allies
With sunglasses
Maybe its cause, I don't wanna see you
The hard part is getting you out of my head
You're already dead to me
You're already dead to me
Your black lies turn into red
They bleed through your white dress
Now your dead, so who do you have to impress
Murderers of the past,
Victims of the future
The past may be over
But everyone remembers the creatures
Your black lies turn into red
They bleed through your white dress
Now your dead, so who do you have to impress
The hard part is getting you out of my head
You're already dead to me
You're already dead to me
Quiet lonely dreamer
I've watched you walk so many times
Of all the years that made us blind
Why you, why you let it all
Be like some prison in your mind
It doesn't need to be
It doesn't need to be
So where do the waves go, my love
Where do the waves go, my love
Sonic or liquid, I don't know
Sonic or liquid, I don't know
You must speak your life into existence
This intent is so much more
That just a means to
End all of this suffering
This needless pain that stains your face
It doesn't need to be
It doesn't need to be
So where do the waves go, my love
Where do the waves go, my love
Sonic or liquid, I don't know
Sonic or liquid, I don't know
Oooo we wait so long babe
Can you feel it?
Making waves
The bubbles churn
And curls turn
On a perm that doesn't fade
Like the wheels on a motorcade
Like the star of a float parade
Like it's time to celebrate
Like Grandma's herbs that smell so great
Can you feel it?
It's in your bones
Clock ticks; an annoying German
on a cellular telephone
Like the thought of getting old
In a cemetery home
Those are things I shoulda known
Waves affects the sea
Crashing agony
Tears a sickly state
To me, to me, to me, to me
Choking on the words
Dying to be heard
Arms around the song
The good is gone, the good is gone
Driving and crying
Where am I going?
Motion is emotion
Riding out the pain
Drowning in the rain
On a sunny day
Real escape's a dream
Can never remember what I do
Recall them all
He laughs at me 'cause I
Still can see the pictures
Printed on my mind
The night before, the night before
Driving and crying
Where am I going?
Motion is emotion
Riding out the pain X4
Pain
My wish in your hand
Dropped it in the gutter
Cruely you opened
Your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
Smiles
Driving and crying
Where am I going
Motion is emotion
Coming of age, after you blacked out my eyes
I have no light in the house of day
it's far too much to take after it's come to this
I can't just turn back the page anymore
I can't just turn back the page anymore
and after everything that I have fought
and tried and died not to be caught
I've never felt so alone
just because you don't know, you're not letting go
but you still stop the beat in my chest
and it's something that I could have guessed
but you still stop the beat in my chest
and I'll be more than happy to take the rest
no longer will I see myself this way
there is no light in this house of day
I feel the sun, but I can't find the warmth
I belong on the other side of this town
where I can feel loved, away from you
I have conscious, but I'll see this night through
by morning I'll have to never see you again
just because you don't know, you're not letting go
but you still stop the beat in my chest
and it's something that I could have guessed
but you still stop the beat in my chest
and I'll be more than happy to take the rest
as I climb my way back up your nails
as they clasp on to your dying finger
and I'll come away, from everything
with your name on my arm like a trophy
just because you don't know, you're not letting go
you're not letting go
I'll take my time and move on from all of this
It’s all about the rolling waves
You leave me cold
I’m wandering and positive
So what if I don’t want to wait
They’re not tying me off right now
And though it doesn’t make sense
I lost all feeling inside my mouth
And I can’t handle my hands
You cover the ground
To everyone else it seems like nothing is sound
But tell you just how far you’ll run
So, keep on looking up
You’ll find the courage to paint a world that burns like Hell
Not for allure, but mostly for yourself
Cause you needed escape in a dark kind of way
It’s a sentiment you’ll never get used to
And I don’t want to hear it
I’ve seen soul in the nerves of every feeling you fought
And maybe it’s enough to move us on
From where we started off
You cough up blood, but stand up to anyone
But never do it out of rage
Just build your home and surround it with everyone
Who always seem to feel your pain
If I’m finally at my doubts
I take a look at my friends
Don’t make a ceiling inside your clouds
Just let them grow with your plans
And that’s the way it ought to stay
You’ll find the courage to paint a world that burns like Hell
Not for allure, but mostly for yourself
Cause you needed escape in a dark kind of way
It’s a sentiment you’ll never get used to
And I don’t want to hear it
I’ve seen soul in the nerves of every feeling you fought
And maybe it’s enough to move us on
From where we started off
I see the side of things that won't show up
I’m not involved in that
I see that art is making something loud
When it's silent out I yell
And this is in my head
I don’t need a writer to tell me how I breathe
This is the war to end all wars
Cause some say...
You’ll find the courage to paint a world that burns like Hell
Not for allure, but mostly for yourself
Cause you needed escape in a dark kind of way
It’s a sentiment you’ll never get used to
And I don’t want to hear it
I’ve seen soul in the nerves of every feeling you fought
And maybe it’s enough to move us on
Waves roll on by. Waves roll on by.
Waves roll on by. Waves roll on by.
Life, pass on by. Life, pass on by.
By the time you try, you go and die.
And the wind is at our backs. No need to hurry back.
Just stay on the track, keeping the wind at our backs.
You're only worth one wish that you'll probably never make.
You're just making the least, babe,
of all the time that you're awake.
You can see the trouble before it comes.
Why don't you just go and cast it out?
But you've always been hard.
Well, I've always been had.
Yeah, I've always been had.
Yeah, I've always been had.
Maybe it's not so bad.
I just know when puddles form,
I don't stay inside and let it pour.
There's better forecasts for me.
And I'll let the rain roll off my back.
And if you've always been sad,
maybe it's not so bad.
And years amount to back accounts
and all is well on all accounts.
And finally they set you free yeah, all expenses paid.
You never had a chance, they always taught you bad.
The only life you had was the one you made.
You're only worth one wish that you'll probably never make.
You only get one chance that you know you'll never take.
And the dream that's in your heart
and how it sleeps when you're awake.
You never lived a day.
But you swear on your mother's grave
like you swore this time you'd stay.
You're making the most of the time that you're awake.
Waves
And then goodbye
I live in a wafer thin dream
I, I can't cry
You know the time
Time's not kind
But I remember the way we were
The slow, slow sad love
I wonder do you miss my love
I know you can't
It's just a wave passing over me
What are these waves
They're coming over me
It must be my destiny
Waves
They're coming by
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Waves
They're coming by
watch the waves so far away
they're washing cross the paths that i have made
leaving all my sins i turn away
like soaring birds i watch my sorrows play
don't you know
i've left and gone away
you're knocking on the door i closed today
and everything looks brighter
the waves they just soothe my pain away
it felt so good to see the sun
i'll choose my time before i choose the one
floating cross the waves the silence runs
my thoughts can go but now my sorrows done
Behind the moon you’ll find the sun.
Down at the beach there is not anyone.
The water so blue,
and the way I feel too,
and nothing matters anymore but you.
They slightly dissapear, the stars.
Venus not there and neither Mars.
I ask for the truth, and you answer me shhh…
A nice way to say it, so smooth!
Waves on the sea, they’re talking to me,
they’re telling me about how it feels to be free, so free...
Waves on the sea, they’re talking to me,
they’re telling me about how it feels to be free, so free...
And the wind blows away the sand, (like an hourglass)
falling from my hand.
Another minute lost in peace,
I close my eyes and I can feel your breeze
Beeing on this beach, I am out of reach,
I cannot listen to his lies, when I’m here.
There is a couple on the run.
A solitary man, looks like he’s having fun.
I don’t have to fear, when freedom is near,
again you give me all the strenghs I need to live.
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
And I say it's all right
Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
And I say it's all right
My face above the water
My feet can't touch the ground,
Touch the ground, and it feels like
I can see the sands on the horizon
Everytime you are not around
I'm slowly drifting away (drifting away)
Wave after wave, wave after wave
I'm slowly drifting (drifting away)
And it feels like I'm drowning
Pulling against the stream
Pulling against the stream
I wish I could make it easy
Easy to love me, love me
But still I reach, to find a way
I'm stuck here in between
I'm looking for the right words to say
I'm slowly drifting, drifting away
Wave after wave, wave after wave
I'm slowly drifting (drifting away)
And it feels like I'm drowning
Pulling against the stream
Pulling against the stream
Wash away
The lonely weeks made
And alone, my worried face
Is grey
Sipping on
The moments of the sun,
And the waves
Of promise and waste
Wash away
The lonely weeks made
And talk of pretty sea waves
Saw the water, not the waves
Caught your eye, forgot your name
Always leaving, either way
I want you to stop me
Episodes to fantasize
TV movie of our lives
The future is all mine
I'll find it on my way back
When I'm gone
I'll know what I've done
I'll go where I don't belong
It's all, not one
I love everything
No sleep; I lose everything
Oh don't tell me again
I won't see you again
Not one
I love everything
No sleep; I lose everything
Oh, don't tell me again
I won't see you again
Saw the waves, but not the tide
I couldn't stay, I don't know why
A sailor married to the sea
My luck is a lost key
The door is locked from the inside
Don't wait around, I won't arrive
Keep a room somewhere for me
I'll find it on my way back
When I'm gone
I'll know what I've done
I'll go where I don't belong
It's all, not one
I love everything
No sleep; I lose everything
Oh don't tell me again
I won't see you again
Not one
I love everything
No sleep; I lose everything
Oh, don't tell me again
So many years, so many hardships
So many laughs, so many tears
So many things to remember
'Cause they had 50 years
Now the kids, they got their own kids
Their own kids have grown
She told him not to worry
Say he'd be fine when she was gone
He walks down to the ocean
Bends to touch the water, kneels to pray
Writes her name in sand
Waves wash it away
There are seagulls circling shrimp boats
That turn inside the bay
There's an emptiness inside
That never goes away
He walks down to the ocean
Bends to touch the water, kneels to pray
He writes her name in the sand
Waves wash it away
So many years, so many hardships
So many laughs, so many tears
So many things he cannot remember
'Cause they had 50 years
He walks down to the ocean
Bends to touch kneels to pray
He writes her name in the sand
Waves wash it away
He writes her name in the sand
I'm starting to feel this water wrapped around my chest
Hold your breath before this wave crashes over us
Hide all your valuables and keep your kids locked up
With a job like this
We get paid to collect bodies
We come and go so quick
We get paid to collect bodies
Have you had enough
Or is it something deep inside
That you're just not telling us
Building up walls and barricades
It's something like an illusion
So take a deep breath
And feel this ocean water filling up your lungs
Hold your breath before this wave crashes over us
Hide all your valuables and keep your kids locked up
With a job like this
We get paid to collect bodies
We come and go so quick
We get paid to collect bodies
Please don't forget to wrap these weights around your ankles baby
Fill your pockets with every empty apology they gave you
Because tonight because tonight
You'll be sitting all alone at the bottom
Who's gonna save you tonight
Hold your breath before this wave crashes over us
Hide all your valuables and keep your kids locked up
With a job like this
We get paid to collect bodies
We come and go so quick
We get paid to collect bodies
So just rip me away from that normal sense of security
And you'll be born again on a river bank
Now before you drown yourself
Were these scares never meant to heal?
Was this heart never meant to feel?
Well I hope this time
Breaks you down
I'm starting to feel this water wrapped around my chest
Hold your breath before this wave crashes over us
Hide all your valuables and keep your kids locked up
With a job like this
We get paid to collect bodies
We come and go so quick
We get paid to collect bodies
Eyes like diamonds

There's so much more that I wanna do
In her eyes I know I'd stay forever
The way she moves
Her body's like a dream come true
There's something so magical about her
To get to know her
They gon' keep on dance right it up
They tryna holla at her
But she knows about the game
The swag is all I got to know

And the dream that's in your heart and how it sleeps when you're awake.
You never lived a day.
But you swear on your mother's grave like
you swore this time you'd stay.
Running circles again we dont know where to begin where
are we now. Getting back on track would be the only way
out or to walk these waves. When you go so far so far
from here. youll see you have a home all along, right
here by your side. Running circles again we dont know
where to begin where are we now. Just ride these waves
past your troubles, dont fear a thing. As we rise we
stand tall and hold our ground x2 learn to trust me, dont
lose your head, lose your head. Just watch how we can,
can walk these waves, and well just say how we can walk
these waves. Waves we can walk these waves, and ill say
that we , we can all walk these waves. Just say how we
Feels as if the things I thought about
Silly boy, you're off to what I thought about
In a way, the sun is setting on my side
But it's alright unless it's gone
Away from here for good
[BRIDGE]
But it's so hard, watching you fade away
And it's too hard, watching you fade away
[CHORUS]
These are the ways that I talked about, silly boy
Don't you forget about what I have said
These are the ways that I talked about, silly boy
Don't you forget about what I have said
It's all in your head
The person that I thought I was
Is something that I don't think is coming true
And to say things that surround me now
Are the same things that I seem to see right through
REPEAT BRIDGE AND CHORUS (x2)
I knew someone this time, she was dying as I bit my tongue.
I knew little from my youth, but I knew too soon to save her.
Well it's like they all say. So take my breathe, I'll die today.
And I can't repent. And I can't regret.
(And there's something I felt and it won't escape me.
And there's something I knew, and it won't escape me.)
Well I'm running through my dreams, wishing you could see
How fast it takes me to fall in open valleys.
My son you're all choked up.
Just open your heart and make believe
The sun could make and cast the biggest shadows over me.
Over the places I hold in my thoughts.
In my thoughts is where you'll be.
I like the way you look at me
'Cause nothing here is guaranteed
Work so hard to get paid
Here alone it feels ok
You beat these things, you ride these waves
Someday soon our luck will change
You beat these things, ride these waves
Some day soon our luck will change
I don't know where I belong
Can't stay down got to move on
You give me strength to defeat
The steel in my soul, steel on the streets
Beneath the concrete lies the beach
In my hands not out of reach
You beat these things, you ride these waves
Some day soon our luck will change
Ride these waves..
Days add up, life goes on
Rent comes due, spring comes fall
I take you out, I dance with you
And fade to black from neon blue
Somewhere in the dead of night
Our memories remain in light
You beat these things, you ride these waves
Some day soon our luck will change
Ride these waves
Ride these waves
Our luck is going to change
Rain...Innocent smiles of a life, a ghost waved a melted eyes,
Inner voices turned to roaring, lengthening the railway of pain,
Like a flower in a trodden sand,
ripped by ash coloured waves and smashed over the stones of human emptiness.
I couldn't give you life, so i gave mine.
Rain fell within a moment, each drop i have felt.
Sea in motion, wind has filled my sails
Full of power and direction too
As if I had a job to do
Don't I know coldness in this gale?
And don't I need to get my mind off you
Or lose myself in ocean blue
And sail around this ocean in a circle
Without measuring my pace
While this crescent of a moon is surely calling
For the power of my faith
Sing to me another siren song
With a melody from in this sea
The wind and waves for harmony
You don't know me yet you call my name
I can hear it on the ocean breeze
If ever it was meant for me
To sail around this ocean in a circle
Without measuring my pace
While crescent of a moon is surely calling
For the power of my faith
And the waves, oh they spray me down
As if water was the only sound
And I was meant to drown in their song
I can hear your flute, as I gaze into the water blue
But I will not go down for long
Years ago or in another life
There was something of the sea in me
Ever flowing, ever free
Anyway, I should have known by now
That it's time for me to change my ways
Or seek my truth beneath the waves
And sail around this ocean in a circle
Without measuring my pace
Oh to never know the answer to my question
Would not be a lonely fate
And the waves, oh they spray me down
As if water was the only sound
And I was meant to drown in their song
I can hear your flute, as I gaze into the water blue
But I will not go down for long
