I look out the window and wonder
How relaxing the ocean could be
A place where I could see stars from under
Just me and the sea
Living in this place gets too loud
Sometimes I can’t hear myself think
I feel as if I’m not living this life proud
My life is passing me by in a blink
I want to start over, become anew
Make new friends, make new memories
Become a person not always so blue
And maybe discover new therapies
Sometimes I imagine myself in a cute beach house
It has huge windows, and decorated in all white
I’m wearing a big sun hat and a flowy blouse
Making my way to the café so I can write
Why can’t I have all of this at home?
This desire is known as a Sea Change
Its normally when you start to feel so alone
That you decide you no longer want to stay
But it takes a lot of courage to leave
Its scary to start over, will I ever be brave enough?
Or maybe it’s just a fantasy, just another crazy dream
Another thing I “think” I want, another bluff
Maybe one day I could carry this one out
Finally, be adventurous, and take a true chance
I could truly live, instead of moping about
But for now, I’ll dream on…and live in another trance
