It’s Only Your Life

July 24, 2007

Be sure to keep wasting your days
Maybe you’ll get started tomorrow
Don’t think about how your time is spent
Don’t worry, it’s only your life

You can die like countless others
Treading the path of mediocrity
Unaware of what you’re missing
But don’t worry, it’s only your life

No one cares if you’re not true to yourself
Or if you quit and give up in fear
The only person who knows would be you
But don’t worry, it’s only your life

All those people you knew you could help
Those hidden talents you refused to share
Lie on the sideline of unfulfilled dreams
But don’t worry, it’s only your life

When you’re old and gray, with fear and regret
Replaying those fateful decisions
Wishing you could do it over again
Don’t worry, it was only your life
