Our lives are an open book
go ahead and take a look...

In time,
everything will define
the life that you live
all that you give
all that you share
each way you care
all that you need
everything that you greed
each moment you hold dear
each whisper that you hear
all the secrets you keep
each tear drop that you weep

In time,
everything will define
all that you admire
each person you inspire
every smile that you smile
each moment made worth while
all the energy you create
each path led to your fate
every lesson you learn
all the bridges you burn
every good deed
each leap you take lead

All these things
all these moments
all these experiences
will define
only in time
who you become
who you are
who you are meant to be
then you will see
it is you
the one
the only
self proclaimed
self defined
illusions of the mind
sight seeing
creations of being
designed by character
colored by motion
life as it seems
guided by dreams
defined by me
defined by you

and now you know
throughout the show
each act
along with ancient fact
it is nature
it is life
preserved in stone
earth your home
surrounded by water
engulfed by air
you are free
can't you see
not that it matters
what he or she says
what he or she thinks
walk each step
give yourself pep
you define you
only you can stand true
only you know you.

Your life is an open book
take a look...
take a read
now, take heed
today is the day,
make your mark
it is your destiny.
