You do not have to be yielding
You do not have to bow to the powers that be
and march through bogs devouring enemies that are not your own
Just love this journey and even its maddened pace
Tell me about your sadness, yours, and I will tell you sadness, mine
Meanwhile the universe goes on
Meanwhile the days light and the clouds burst with crystals of rain
sweeping across our homes
and over the rivers and deserts
Meanwhile seagulls, high in the clean blue air
are heading home from the sea, again today
Whoever you are, wherever you are, no matter how forsaken,
life offers itself to your own unique invention, yours
and calls you like the sea, rough and intoxicating
listen for its call
You do not have to bow to the powers that be
and march through bogs devouring enemies that are not your own
Just love this journey and even its maddened pace
Tell me about your sadness, yours, and I will tell you sadness, mine
Meanwhile the universe goes on
Meanwhile the days light and the clouds burst with crystals of rain
sweeping across our homes
and over the rivers and deserts
Meanwhile seagulls, high in the clean blue air
are heading home from the sea, again today
Whoever you are, wherever you are, no matter how forsaken,
life offers itself to your own unique invention, yours
and calls you like the sea, rough and intoxicating
listen for its call
