Restless Heart – Calming Seas
I lived my life in the fast lane more than once
The reasons for such wildness was never a question of sanity or anger
But rather it was a moment of calmness that the rough seas brought to my
heart
Because when nothing goes right, a restless heart seeks to find a calming
sea
I had been told by many that it would be the cause for my demise
Living like a masochist, they said it would eventually take my life
Why couldn’t I be like the rest of men, who walked the calming seas
Instead of finding a way to ride the highest waves brought on by these
dreams
A rebel heart inside me took me to the highest summits of my life
It gave me visions of hope, desire and passion that I wanted to be a part
of me
I belonged to the wildness in this world, I passed on the calming seas
It seemed that walking on the wild side of life was the life that satisfied
me
Living with this kind of acceptancy, it took me on the rebel side of me
It made me feel that it was part of my destiny, leaving me never satisfied
I took the high road more often than the dark road but it barely kept me
alive
You might say that making bad choices is what kept me the will to survive
The depth of my heart, the strength of my soul was what kept me going
strong
Even though at times, my heart knew what I was doing was wrong
As I aged I shed my skin and outgrew that part of me that caused me pain
So every now and then, I take an opportunity to shed a tear by walking in
the rain
