Melancholie Shore

Cast all of your plans aside
You're bound to find your peace down the line
Soon you'll be away from dust and noise
Beyond concrete on some foreign soil
The pennies you don't spend one pile
And working for the man seems vile
Soon you'll be the on the verge of paradise
Beneath green leaves with ocean in your eyes
And as you cut all your ties to find out
What it means to

Trade it all
For a solitary dance among the corals
Will you float or drown
When the sun bleeds up on melancholy shows

You haven't thought of home in a while
And no one seems to care for a drifter in denial
Soon you'll see the road won't ease your mind
And all your dreams will wear off with the tide
And as you start to comply, you'll
Find out what it means to

Trade it all
For a solitary dance among the corals
Will you float or drown
When the sun bleeds up a melancholy shore

And that's you, ask why
No one's there to hear you lonely cry
And that's your dreams die
You'll head on to drown some other time
