Look at us now, look at us now,
All I wonder about our situation is – HOW?
Often times I close my eyes,
And there I see only blue skies,
Under it I see a ship,
Sailing on the ocean until it flips.
Human kind has not done right,
So I close my eyes to imagine a sight,
A sight without human kind,
But of only bright lights and peaceful sighs,
I wait for the ocean breeze to hit my face,
Just to realize that life is not a race.
Just as I get back to reality,
I see our deeds in clarity.
