Do I sail out to an uncharted destination ?
Why am I afraid to sail afar ?
We think we can go on pretending
Its time to deal with who we are
If we think our laziness
Has no consequence
We're just adrift on an
Ocean of Ignorance
Do I hesitate to cast off from shore ?
Why do I stop before I start ?
We think we are enlightened people
But we are still drowning in the dark
We let ourselves get tossed about
By crashing waves of despair and doubt
We let ourselves be overcome
By whatever comes about
Do I consider the results of my actions ?
Why don't I consider the bite of my words ?
We blame out behavior on other distractions
We blame our behavior on what we have heard
If we think our laziness
Has no consequence
We're just adrift on an
Ocean of Ignorance
