Steadfast

We've been deserted that doesn't mean that we deserve it
Is it worth keeping ourselves at bay
Set sail you've spent way too much time living your life in exile
So say goodbye to the shoreline
Maybe if I'm sent off to sea I'll find out what this means to me
I've got a message I carry that I have forgotten to read
I don't need another day floating away
Lost in the sea of regret I've made
I want to wash up new for once
For once I don't want to float face down
You can try and fail but don't fail to try
Do I deserve this
If you're deserted you can desert it
You can never leave an island in your mind until you lose sight of the shoreline
You can try and fail but don't fail to try
Some people spend their whole lives in exile
You can never leave an island until you lose sight of the shoreline
Times like these they come in wave
Make your footprint and send it right back away
All you're saying to me tonight here in the open skyline
Without darkness no star can learn to guide the way
You are not as lost as me
If you were I wouldn't be here writing
Some day you will find me
