For the first time in my life I don't know where to go,
This freedoms left me feeling misplaced, no steady hand to show,
Me what's right and wrong and if my efforts have all gone to waste.
So I'll be judged on the things I've done,
Making the most of my time living under the sun,
Instead of buried in the fear, in the stress that we make,
Living up to expectations for no one else's sake.
It's better late than never to come to your senses or that's what I keep telling myself,
Always chasing what I never wanted,
Losing time to finish what I've started.
There comes a time when we all choose,
What's best for us and some will lose what they built their entire lives up for.
Conflicting intentions at closer inspection,
Cleared my mind for what I wanted more.
Took one step back and saw what was in front of me,
All the times that I'd have but was it all I need?
It's knowing where to start,
My life and dreams are miles apart,
From who I'm really meant to be.
Can sit and sulk or make something of what I've got,
Memories I have keep me from moving out the past.
The choices riddle me from head to toe,
They follow me to where I go,
I'm giving chances to let myself grow.
At every turn there's a lesson,
To be learnt, so many questions.
I'm lost without some peace of mind,
Running head first into this feeling so sick, so blind,
To everything I ever sought and everything I always thought,
Would make me into who I am,
Some things in life we cannot plan.
