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
