Someone told me, the other day, they were turning over a brand new leaf. Wanted to scream, but I stopped myself. See the leaf for the forest for the trees. I told a stranger, the other day, I was gonna find me a brand new way. And I remember what he started to say, he looked me in the eyes and said ‘that’s ok.’
I saw some friends, the other day, they saw me acting different so they went on their way. We lead by example, and we hurt by choice. They never said goodbye, so I didn’t raise my voice. I saw your parents, the other day, they were asking about you in the typical way. They said they always wondered why we went our separate ways, then I asked if they knew, and they said you didn’t say.
Don’t mistake your fate for your common sense. It takes a leap of faith for us to climb the fence. Don’t ever trade your pride for your confidence, just brush it off your shoulder, there’s no gain from your regrets.
Marching onward to your siren’s song, never looking back until your time is done. You wash it all away without a single care, where surrounded by your island you can disappear.
