A Fools Life
Yes, there are times when I want to get out of the water
push down the oars and tether my boat
to gather my thoughts while the current softens
and stand calm and still with my feet on the ground
But none of us were given rope
and that current wills to never soften
I've seen men jump overboard
but only fools think the river bed solves problems
so on this icy, turbulent journey
no matter how desperate my desire
I refuse to follow
