Sailing Home Bound
Moments spent like water on rocks
 As shivers run down to our socks
 The silence is such a helpless noise
 As we stand back up to our rightful poise. 
 We sing of such a cacophonous sound
 As the drums' beat is being pounded
 We beg for peace against the war
 Even though we plead for more.
 Pitiful sounds leak up and out
 When children weak and pout
 Parents try to calm the down
 As bombs burst in the town.
 Their eyes were watching God
 As their hearts looked towards the flawed
 Their judgmental stares weight the world 
 As the wind twirled and swirled.
 They pulled against their hair in anger
 As their hopes cast anchors
 It's not their faults
 As they fall back to their defaults.
 Memories run like water under the bridge
 As you scourer the fridge
 You're home alone once again
 As you feel like everything was in vain.
 Hopes like ships cast out to sea
 Run as fast as you can to catch them before the banshees
