The theatre of life

Put the weight of the world;

that is chained to your ankle;

where it now belongs.

 

It is not if you are strong; it is not if you are wrong; it is not if you manage to play along.

 

The carousel keeps spinning;

not the fairest kind;

Though, does it need to be?

 

It is not if you are strong; it is not if you are wrong; it is not if you manage to play along.

 

The theatre of life continues its one-act—will you perform?

The theatre of life continues its piece— I only came for your song.

 

Freedom and a crown;

duties and vows;

a fate messy and blind.

 

It is not if you are strong; it is not if you are wrong; it is not if you manage to play along.

 

A single little home;

found by chance;

where you can sing tunes of your own.

 

It is not if you are strong; it is not if you are wrong; it is not if you manage to play along.

 

The theatre of life continues its one-act—will you perform?

The theatre of life continues its piece— I only came for your song.

 

The theatre of life continues its one-act—will you perform?

The theatre of life continues its piece— I only came for your song.

 

It was never about if you are strong;

it was never about if you are wrong.

 

Choose your own lines; choose your own dress; choose your own way to act in this mess.

 

The theatre of life continues its performance—and you are the acting star.
