The 25-Year Mark

You're alive but not living,
Looking but not seeing.
Such is the life that you choose --
You must keep up or you will lose. 

Make your plans and achieve your goals,
Tear down walls and patch up the holes. 
Nobody really needs to see you down,
Because time will come when they will watch you drown. 

Keep on pushing against the tide,
With nowhere to run and no place to hide. 
Nobody said there was another way...
And that you were just wasting your life away.


So here you are facing the roads that cross
The dice of life -- you have to toss. 
Should you stay or should you gamble?
With a fearful heart, You start to crumble

Until when shall you stay in this forsaken land?
Were all your dreams just built on sand?
You try and try but still cannot cope,
Beyond this crossroad, is there any hope?

Every day is a "figure it out" day
But with a courageous voice, you try to say...
"Looking back is always good,
As long as you move forward -- 
as you think you should".
