Coming in the tides
Water meets the earth's facade
to mock the rigid

I was trying to explain how water, a very open and flowing thing, can destroy rock, something firm and rigid. I was using erosion as an analogy to ourselves. We all stand firm on some subject, but usually we aren't completely right. If we don't let our mind open to the truth, water, the truth will destroy us. That might be kind of confusing, but that was the best way I could explain it =P
