The Ship

Maybe it is time to move on
Maybe this is yet another test

A reminder to follow your dreams
A note blown by wind of change

Let others follow their destiny
But you, choose your new road
Laugh and walk the new path
The one you like, the one you want

So many years you've lived
How many have you enjoyed?

Days after days you dreamed at school
Before bed, while reading a book
What happened to your dreams?
What happened to your happy ending?

This storm has no mercy, no compassion
It will take them all, the dreams I mean
Without dreams you live in nightmares
The demons will haunt you for eternity

It is the ship you build
With hope and determination
With love and compassion
That can resist the storm
Your ship, not anyone else's
