When Will You Live For Yourself ?
« on: December 04, 2007, 11:09 AM »

If you run away
with legs as fast as can carry you
they say if you run away
you'd live to fight another day

If you stand to fight
they call you a fool
why not make a run for it ?
why not leave to live again

If you stand up for what is right
they are there again to tell you it's wrong
if you put your head up high
they say why not look down below

If you live life the way you want to
you don't tell them how to live
but they tell you how to behave
what to put on, simply put you're a slave

Zombie to the world
slowly events start to unfold
if you live for others
when will you live for yourself ?

If you remain here
with legs as slow as not to carry you
they say if you don't run away
you'll face pain in the battlefield

If you sit not to fight
they call you a brave heart
why not stay here till the end
captain of a slow sinking ship

If you stand up for what is wrong
war,murder and racism
If you put your head down
they say why not look up into the clouds

If you don't live the way you want to
You tell them how to live
they don't tell you how to behave
what to do,you are simply a master

Person to the world
faster events start to recede
if you live for others
when will others live for you?
