|
One day you're certain |
|
of how things will be. |
|
Then you're bewildered |
|
and robbed of your glee. |
|
And this is what happens next: |
|
the curtains are drawn; |
|
the stage of your life revealed, |
|
but the script is now gone. |
|
Ohh oohh... |
|
The question's in your eyes, |
|
"What's the meaning of it all?" |
|
To which your heart replies, |
|
"This is much less like a play |
|
and more like a Grand Ball." |
|
Yeah! |
|
The stage is now filled with song |
|
all the cast of your play are now dancing. |
|
You're itching to dance along; |
|
now you can't stop your feet from the tapping. |
|
Soon enough you'll start to think, |
|
"Perhaps I'll write again." |
|
With your reasons indistinct, |
|
"A script may help this dance." |
|
You so easily forget, |
|
exactly how this ends. |
|
Inspired, rewired, |
|
you calculate the steps. |
|
Each movement to the moment, |
|
an elaborate conquest. |
|
You'll find such comfort in the orchestration. |
|
You must determine how the plot unfolds. |
|
Making rigid demands of your cast. |
|
They seem so unconcerned with the things you ask. |
|
And still they keep dancing on |
|
just as though you don't have a say. |
|
And the choice of routine or song |
|
isn't better that way. |
|
This is what happens when |
|
you realize your not in control. |
|
Some days you'll bear the load |
|
and others you won't. |
