greener
(happiness where you are)
-inspired by Grant Campbell


i thought it was greener here
i thought it was better there
i traveled a thousand years
to protect myself from lack

i found all that life could be
i forgot my complacency
i traveled a thousand seas
to indulge myself in all

i knew there was more to life
i figured i would find it soon
i traveled a thousand thoughts
to find the ultimate place of rest

but now there is no one left
and now all my friends are gone
i'd travel a thousand deaths
to be back where i began
