Some people live life
Rest only hide from it
Heart on the sleeve
Facing the heat
Relishing every moment
Counting it as a blessing
Cought in the downpour
Walking through the desert
They threw the dice
Number that comes up
Decides their fate
Living life is a blind date
Work out any which way
Bail out of the date
Life still happens anyway
Afraid to climb the mountains
Standing below wondering about slipping
Doesn't change anything
Facing the fear lot less painful
Than Running away from it
Swinging on the pendulum
On both ends of the spectrum
What happens in between
Is the life that's destined
Dealt with cards wanting to fold
The folded card still gets its due
