To dwell in the silence, down under
The calm waters, below the waves
Surrounded by coral reefs, colors
Of the sea, and the inhabitant fish
Basking in the flow of the rippling tides
Where they can quietly swim about
Oh, yes, freedom, freedom from
The reckless and uncaring, the
Human factor, dehumanized beings
When, alas, I realize, as I sum it all up
I would rather drown in beauty
Than live in the ugliness of mankind
