I've been having some trouble lately, With dos and don'ts What to avoid And what to take into my life with open arms. Who to trust with my life breath And who I should turn from And run as far away as I can. When nothing is set in stone It's hard to know what will stay. It's all liquid at the moment It may always be so Or it may solidify itself far too soon, Leaving me stuck in ice Stuck in rock Stuck in my own old ways. I'll ask you once more not to leave me But to help me figure it all out And if you cannot stay I still will go.
