I looked with disbelief
At the utter devastation
All consumed in a moment's glory
Of what will never be again.
You see I understood back then
That nothing in this life
Is worth holding on to.
Feeling happy, feeling sad
Is just part of the plan.
Guard you mind and guard your heart
Plant your being firmly where you stand.
Neither dwindle off
Or be strayed with coercion
Stay firm, and stand strong
Like the rock in the middle of the ocean.

At the utter devastation
All consumed in a moment's glory
Of what will never be again.
You see I understood back then
That nothing in this life
Is worth holding on to.
Feeling happy, feeling sad
Is just part of the plan.
Guard you mind and guard your heart
Plant your being firmly where you stand.
Neither dwindle off
Or be strayed with coercion
Stay firm, and stand strong
Like the rock in the middle of the ocean.
