The Unknown Sea Lyrics

Was it always hard or did it just get worse with time?

It’s exhausting always feeling something’s wrong

I watched the brighter days get overrun by darker ways

Sometimes we’re born where we simply don’t belong

Childhood games soon gave way to teenage brains

and there was cruelness waiting for you in their voices

if you’re not in, you’re out and that’s the way it has always been

so escaping was the clearest of your choices

So, you sailed, so far away

You’d waited years for time and tide to set you free

So, sail my friend, to a better place

to peaceful lands far across the unknown sea

You left it all behind one August day

a gentle soul looking for a home

I think of simple days when we just played and it makes me smile

Though you couldn’t see, you never were alone

So, you sailed, so far away

You’d waited years for time and tide to set you free

So, sail my friend, to a better place

to peaceful lands far across the unknown sea
