lyrics

If history repeats than the future has a stutter
Stay focused on the present to avoid the mental clutter
Life can be a blissful little kiss that’s full of wonder
But your shadows keep it hidden with the rock that you are under

But what’s the cost of your own comfort?
A meaningless existence that will end as just a number?
The winter is upon us but steady right behind the summer
I suggest you take advantage cause you do not get another

You are not blamed for seeking safety
But you’re shamed because you’re waisting precious time playing it safely
As if it benefits you greatly
If you think that is the case then you are painfully mistaking

Life is beautiful and all that
But will not hesitate to walk right passed you like a door mat
You better figure out the format
It’s stepping ever closer and you look just like a floor scratch

The ship has been weathered from what I can see
But that doesn’t mean it’s spent a single day out to sea
How many of us have been docked by the anchor of fear
And kept our ship at bay and never sailed year after year

Life is long if you use it well
But worrying would rather have you planning what to do in hell
A mental prison putting you in to a cell
Nobody is to blame this is something that you do yourself

The clock keeps ticking
And we bop to the rhythm like it’s not going to end it’s
All part of the illusion
So we run around derping about in a state of confusion

You’ll do it when you can
Then the moment has arrived when your shoulder meets his hand
And you scream you are not ready but he’s deaf to your demand
So much you could have done but squandered it while busy making plans
