nothing is ever easy

nothing is ever easy

it doesn't matter who you are

one day you're a shining jewel

the next day you're a fallen star

I still wish the best for you

wherever you may go

what I mean is, where you're going

there's no real way to know

you're born naked and fearful

and you don't have a choice

you don't even recognize

the sound of your own voice

you grow into an old man

after many, many years

always asking of yourself

exactly why am I here

but the answers never come

you're as clueless as before

but that has never stopped you

from going out the door

and greeting the new morning

with completely open arms

maybe for once the world

isn't causing any harm

so live inside the moment

you're safe for right now

you're not asking where or when

the only question is how

now it's time to celebrate

the world that you know

by counting all your blessings

until it's time to go
