You can second guess decisions
Stew over your plight
Hear but never listen
To what others have in mind

Let it get the best of you
Not watch where your heart steers
Only see what's behind you
Wasted days and missing years

Do not make the best of it
No matter circumstance
If what first comes to mind is quit
You will never learn to dance

Only sip the negative
Listen but do not hear
Share in life but never live
Wasted days and missing years

Never see the joy in life
Or find time to right the wrongs
No concern where your mind dines
You'll never learn the song

Only look down, never up
Where the way is way more clear
Before you start you call it done
Wasted days and missing years
