I would rather be


I would rather be
the person I am
instead of the man
you wish I could be
I would rather do
the best that I can
instead of your plans
of changing me

I would rather be
the one left alone
than to atone
for the way I am
I would rather do
whatever it takes
to grow beyond my mistakes
and finally understand

          we all are searchers
          every one of us
          it's what we do
          we are all searchers
          we do what we can
          to make it through

I would rather be
flying in the sky
like a crow up high
with the earth below
I would rather do
what a crow does
if you ask me, because
they all seem to know

          we are all searchers
          every one of us
          it's who we are
          we are all searchers
          we do what we can
          to visit the stars

I would rather be
an average man
doing what he can
to live his life
I would rather do
what I know how
the future is now
before my eyes
