The Life I never lived

I have travelled upon the earth and get lost in work
I have painted the covers of the universe and mingle
With  animals in the  dirt and have witness the bridges carried  away in the sea and rough waves come chasing after me but I hoist myself upon big ships before the thunder rolls and there I find refuge  for my soul.

Oh mountain of the sun come and accompany me before the day is done, the  watchful eyes of the sea have surround me, I don’t know which way to turn and I don’t want my soul to  burn; throw out the shadows of time and grant me what is  mine
Our days are limited upon the earth and the vision I see is wrapped I up in the clouds and waiting to be explored.

It is more than just mist that is there but all is tangled up in fear
Meetings have come and gone and the closer you sit around
The bargaining table, the further you are away from it
It is the part of me that you cannot see that is driving the
World crazy over thee but I have it all together and you have to figure out which part fits with the moving script.

As the hours slips away and night turns into day, and days become weeks and weeks melts into months and months dissolve into year but the trees held its root firmly in the ground and  destiny looks at me with solemn frown, I have held on so long and destiny is scared of singing my song.

Oh spirit of the courageous sea put on your diving suits and
make haste to come and rescue me; I am trapped in a village of swine with ice tumbling upon my head if you delay any longer soon everyone in the village will be dead, I have not live my life yet and I would like the ending to be happy so come and take this burden off me and cast I back into the roaring sea.

I have come from afar with one intention in my heart
And it is to get this thing right so that you stop the endless fight
 There are mountains to climb and places to visit that are divine
There is a vast world out there waiting for me and nature wants me to be free; take one more look at the plan and you will understand that life was met to be free, come and share this vision with; I just want everybody to be happy.

Come and live this life with me and let the human race be free.
