Pity the Simple Minds

Not everybody likes a deep ocean
some are only comfortable in the shallows
They want to be able to stand in the water
instead of dive under 
Not everybody likes a deep ocean 
Not everybody likes a wise mind 
Not everybody likes a long story 
Not everybody likes a seasoned soul 
Not everybody likes a deep ocean 
But oh 
the wild life they miss 
The coral reefs 
The fascinating creatures 
The purity of the sand 
The lights that beam through the tides 
They miss everything 
Not everybody will dive down 
to see the beauty of your melancholy 
and meet you with empathy
Not everybody will dive down 
to where the treasure is buried 
Not everybody likes a deep ocean
