Water

. On the water I live To her,my life , I may someday give Away I go , from the land It's people I no longer understand. No place here for me No one is really free None that I can see Fires burning turning day to a red evil light On all fronts there's some kind of fight People so full pf hate Whose actions hasn't been that great This world i now find Has went and lost its mind The world is working itself up to war We can't take to much more Hate is filling the heart Tearing this world apart Lost is the way The hateful things we say What it means to be kind Has been left behind On the water I will sail away For in this place, I will no longer stay For it has lost its way A new home I hope to find Looking for some peace of mind

Three years I lived on the pacific in a sailboat. Ran in to more people out there. Don't have to search for peace. Found I carried it inside me the whole time
