The Ship in Port |
Some say our dreams are a distant road |
Down which our hearts would like to go |
But I have always stayed in place |
Under that old illusion that it’s safe |
You said the ship in port is the safer one |
But it’s not the reason it was made |
So forgive me if I wander off |
And forgive me more if I just stay |
Sing another song for the lost ones |
We’re the ones who need it the most |
Every time you run it’ll cost ya' |
But it doesn’t stop us running |
If a coward dies a thousand times |
Then there’s a graveyard in my head |
'Cause it took me years to say the words |
That you did not even need said |
Sing another song for the lost ones |
We’re the ones that need it the most |
Nothin' that you fear is forgotten |
It follows you around like |
Then everything danced to a stranger tune |
And we found our song and we found our truth |
And now that we know it’s that we always knew |
Farewell to the chains we were born into |
And as we danced among the ashes of our lives |
We laughed it off |
And then we burned our tiny worlds and found the ocean |
Just beyond those paper walls |
