about

About:

This is my first single released as Well Grounded, though I originally wrote and performed it some 20 years ago. I did all of the arrangement, recording, vocals, mixing, and mastering.

lyrics

Lyrics:

It seems the world is just a prison bus
the captives is all us, and now it starts to rust
The very seats to which we are bound to
are starting to fall through, so all them friends fight and argue

And even though we’re now on rocky road
we can still love our home, ‘cause it’s both ugly and beautiful
Now, at this intersection we do idle, to stop and plan a while
then we’ll be rolling on

Then we’ll be rolling on

It seems the world is just a pirate ship
you see we’re set adrift, and all the sails is ripped
The very deck to which we are bound to
is starting to rot through, so all them souls drown or call on you

And now the boom swings strong, from side to side
up rages, you, the tide, to swallow our foolish pride
‘Nuff little children have fallen overboard, I cry out to you, lord
so I’ll be sailing on

So I’ll be sailing on

Don’t try to hide or hesitate
yeah, you can cry or celebrate
‘cause what’s inside is everything
I’ll be outside, it’s time to leave

We gotta smile in spite of pain
we’re rolling on beyond the veil
I’m feeling hope if anything
I’m sailing on to brighter days
