Watching The Sea
i made my way across the sea
now,
i am watching the sea
and all my past float away
i am telling you, it is the best
today was a good day
just like all the rest
hold me there,
i can see your stare
on the island, by a tree
watching the nightmares float away
just you and me
and everything is good
as good as it can possibly be
i made my way across the sea
sometimes it hurts to look around
i wish everyone would do as me
self contentment can be found
watching the sea
