I had to leave, I had to escape
That dreary life I led
Its weight was crushing
Down upon me
I had no place in mind when I left
So I hit the road, headed west
How the world just opened up
Right before my eyes
Is this all life is meant to be,
Just another cog in the big machine?
This is the place, now is the time
You'd better act now
Or life will pass you by
What is the point if there's no joy inside
A meaningless life is no life at all
My vision was filled with water and sand
Light danced across the shore
And waves came crashing
As if they were greeting a friend
Took off my shoes and went for a swim
The water called me on
I followed its melody
Plunged right into the unknown
This is how life is meant to be
Just another dreamer living my dream
This is the place, now is the time
You'd better act now
Or life will pass you by
What is the point if there's no joy inside
A meaningless life is no life at all
