What do you choose to do In a life as complicated as you? We run here and there Busying ourselves with what we know Walking to and fro Figuring out how we should grow Or not grow... We seem to have such busy lives Doing or not doing Trying to make sense of it all But end up falling short What is this life that we know? We meet people We talk We dance We shop We work We study (or not) When times are bad... We cry We get sad We get angry And just give up When times are good We cry too We laugh We dance And maybe prance? But it's all the same for you and I When we do or not do Whether we like it or not Things happen Good things Bad things It's all the same For the good and the bad But when things get confusing Don't get hasty Slow down just a bit And maybe you won't get hit There are much things in life That we don't expect We know nothing about the future And that's what we should accept But still... During our days Whether it be Left or right Up or down This or that We still have to choose We still have to decide

"In life..."
What do you choose to do In a life as complicated as you? We run here and there Busying ourselves with what we know Walking to and fro Figuring out how we should grow Or not grow... We seem to have such busy lives Doing or not doing Trying to make sense of it all But end up falling short What is this life that we know? We meet people We talk We dance We shop We work We study (or not) When times are bad... We cry We get sad We get angry And just give up When times are good We cry too We laugh We dance And maybe prance? But it's all the same for you and I When we do or not do Whether we like it or not Things happen Good things Bad things It's all the same For the good and the bad But when things get confusing Don't get hasty Slow down just a bit And maybe you won't get hit There are much things in life That we don't expect We know nothing about the future And that's what we should accept But still... During our days Whether it be Left or right Up or down This or that We still have to choose We still have to decide
