Why
Why
So as I think, review and contemplate
Realize that, oh, forget the state
State of my life, state of relationships and all is intertwined
The things I review, instead of moving ahead, keep me confined
Unsteady and unsure
Trying to keep up, but failing I am sure
Why, why do I not see past the trees
See what is in front of me
My pain is self inflicted
My life selfโฆ self conflicted
Time to grasp what is important and dear
Time to be and no longer care
No longer care what others say
Live my life, tomorrow is a new day
Others can judge and think they know
Yet, what do they show
Most are faking and wish they could be me
Simply living and being free
Go away all you judgmental fools
I am me, I like what I see, drink your drink and continue to be cruel
