“Wanderlust”
Giving urban a farewell
Its habitants seem too keen on God
I cannot stomach their rights and wrongs
I have lost my origin
And I don’t want to find it again
Whether sailing into nature’s laws
And be held by ocean’s paws
Wanderlust! Relentlessly craving
Wanderlust! Peel off the layers
Until we get to the core
Did I imagine it would be like this?
Was it something like this I wished for?
Or will I want more?
Lust for comfort
Suffocates the soul
Relentless restlessness
Liberates me (sets me free)
I feel at home
Whenever the unknown surrounds me
I receive its embrace
Aboard my floating house
Wanderlust! Relentlessly craving
Wanderlust! Peel off the layers
Until we get to the core
Did I imagine it would be like this?
Was it something like this I wished for?
Or will I want more?
Wanderlust! From island to island
Wanderlust! United in movement
Wonderful! I’m joined with you
Wanderlust!
Wanderlust!
Can you spot a pattern?
Relentlessly restless
Restless, relentlessly
Restless, relentlessly
Restless, relentlessly
Restless, relentlessly
Restless, relentlessly
Restless, relentlessly
(Can you spot a pattern?)
(Can you spot a pattern?)
