I wrote this song with along the theme of reaching 'the point of no return'

Disappointed and betrayed again
In need of solitary escape
Wandering aimlessly with no anticipation
It's time to turn another page
On the shore the ships are burning bright
They reach the point of no return
Watch the embers float away into the night
What are the lessons that we learn?

Skip a stone across the surface
Did you see where it went down?
Don't continue on this current course of action no
Stop right there and turn around
Lost the way due to accidental genius
Lost control lost guitars
Singing songs about a different time and place
I hear the music from afar

Sea of green sea of red
See the things we dream instead
Look at me look at you
All the things that we've been through

Follow me across The Rubicon tonight
Follow me yea
Come with me across The Rubicon tonight
Come with me yea

Fading in and fading out again
Stop the clocks and turn back time
Check the mirror for those cracks and imperfections
Then take a roller coaster ride
But on the last day when they lay me down to sleep
Put me back where I belong
Cos these old bones can't take the cold rain anymore
Tell me where did I go wrong

Sea of green sea of red
See the things we dream instead
Look at me look at you
All the things that we've been through

Follow me across The Rubicon tonight
Follow me yea
Come with me across The Rubicon tonight
Come with me yea

Hi mate, can you post the link in the body copy? Clicking the post title doesn't seem to work.  In the meantime, diggin' the lyrics, especially the accidental genius line.  :-)
It's all too beautiful.
