Casual Speed

You can grow, flow, show by and know when you stop, drop apart and let go
Spread your wings, things that belong to kings when you're free, be, await out at sea

A ship full of dreams is waiting to sail
And all that he wants you to do is to weigh anchor give up the past and leave at first gale

He was a prisoner in chains with a heart so old
He'd seen withered flags take the heat and cold
He inspired dreams in the hearts of those
Whose eyes had blinded them from looking

His cell was stretching like walls made of canvas
He rode a tornado to Mexico from Kansas
They could hardly stop his salvation and redemption
They tasted his mind because there was something fragrant cooking

A ship full of dreams is waiting to sail
And all that he wants you to do is to weigh anchor give up the past and leave at first gale

He took life at a casual speed
Tried to give each moment just what it needed
Made sure that the road he was on
Was one he chose to walk at a casual speed

He tried to teach the world with their right and wrong
Like pirates drunken singing in a sea of song
All were scared they'd be thrown to the gallows
They called long distance and hoped God's number was still working

The guard, he came, electrified the fence tried to ruin his hope
And take the last remaining statues made of soap
And throw them to the rain where they washed
Away the pain of those who stood lurking

A ship full of dreams is waiting to sail
And all that he wants you to do is to weigh anchor give up the past and leave at first gale

He took life at a casual speed
Tried to give each moment just what it needed
Made sure that the road he was on
Was one he chose to walk at a casual speed

To have lived life and never loved
Is to have survived death and not been thankful of
To escape this divine tragedy
Is to walk at a casual speed
Try to give each moment just what it needs
I'll make sure that the road that I'm on
Is one I choose to walk at a casual speed
