Not so Bad

What happens if you never come back
Only fifty more feet to go
Stepping off of the chosen tracks
Is the only way to know
Where can you find happiness
That lasts for a while
Just a bit more than a state of bliss
No longer for the child
The past is gone, wipe away the blues
The jests from every fall
Jumping into instinct new
Not so bad after all
Month after month, year after year
How the time seems to flow
Making it stop with a laugh
The joker seems to know
Sometimes it doesn’t matter, nothing to say
Listen to the news
If you feel a part to play
The next round’s on you
The past is gone, wipe away the blues
The jests from every fall
Jumping into instinct new
Not so bad after all
Dawn after dawn, the play begins
Racing through every scene
Try to slow down, without a crash
Riding peaks of the dream
How long it lasts, you never know
How many samples do you need
Get a taste, bitter or sweet
And know, to never repeat
The past is gone, wipe away the blues
The jests from every fall
Jumping into instinct new
Not so bad after all
