lyrics

He traveled to the new land
To find the promise wasn’t true
But life’s about making a stand
Even when the sky ain’t blue

He traveled to the new land
To leave behind what he went through
With just a few dollars on hand
He turned his back on all he knew

But he found there what he brought with him
A land where you can sink or swim
There’s no one here who knows your heart
You’re all you got right from the start

He traveled to the new land
In search of a breakthrough
But he failed to understand
Your soul’s got seas you don’t just dip into

He traveled to the new land
In search of a new point of view
But his hearts’ a no man’s land
With no dream to live up to

But he found there what he brought with him
A land where you can sink or swim
There’s no one here who knows your heart
You’re all you got right from the start
