Ferry
Navigating Life's Fault Lines: Jesse Marchant's Poetic Journey
Lyrics
Given all I can
Offering everything I'm capable of
For the last time
For the final instance
Find an easier branch
Seeking an easier situation or circumstance
To hang your heart around
To make your emotions more accessible or available
What are you standing there
Why are you hesitating there?
Waiting for?
What are you anticipating or expecting?
Given all your life plans
Considering all your plans in life
You should feel assured
You should possess confidence or certainty
In the balmy air
In the warm and pleasant atmosphere
Everyone's around
Everyone is present
Every young one that you've
Each young person whom you've embraced
Wrapped your arms around
In the haze while traveling on a ferry
In the fog on a ferry
Night journey to escape your shoreline
Night ride to flee your shore
I had hoped not to have encountered you
I wished not to you have known
[This line is blank in the lyrics]
Didn't it fail at the start line?
Aren't we similar in how things occur?
Don't we happen of the same kind?
Establish your dwelling in another vulnerable area
Build your home on another fault line
Handle or confront the consequences there
And deal with your ashes there
Meanwhile, I'll confront mine here
And I'll here deal with mine
And deal with my own aftermath in this place
