Escape to Far Away


I know that life isn’t always what we expect
In all we do we have a need to be perfect
And disappointments and mistakes
And not knowing how to relate

And circumstances, situations and such
Sometimes stumbling, always trying so much
And what if we don’t want to anymore?
We are not waves, don’t need to keep to the shore

So why can’t we go, follow our dreams, fly far away
Go where we will, go where we wish,
just think of today
Why can’t we go, anywhere else, any which way
No need to explain, no need to please, or even to say

And past and future, so confusing and why?
Hard to focus, hard to plan yet we try
And why should we be so afraid to fail?
Are the choices really being stoic – or frail?

So why can’t we go, follow our dreams, fly far away
Go where we will, go where we wish,
we don’t have to stay
Why can’t we go, anywhere else, any which way
Follow our dreams, follow our whims, fly far away
