At Sea

AT SEA
I yawn… hmm what else can I say
I thirst… oh what else can I do
Absolutely miserable, pathetic, no,
I’m under fire, anxiety got me

An agonizing captive
How I set a sail in desert
I possess the ship but not the sea 
Absolutely miserable, pathetic, no,

What a lonely voyage
My courage smiles like the sun
Though, not without a jolt of anxiety
To keep me straight
Hmm… How near is the range land?
Absolutely miserable, pathetic, no,
