Up The Stream
==========
The light of day begins to fade
I used to stop and see the bright blue sky's slow turn to
red
but lately time is running out, and running fast, it seems,
I've missed so many sunsets while I was chasing after him

and I am neither smart nor strong
I'm just looking for somewhere to belong
I used to think I had it made but that was just fool's gold
It's good for paying my way but that is no way to grow old

it's scary out there, and grotesque
one way lead to happiness, another's to success
and dangerous as it may be soon will be time to choose,
and anyway we choose to go it feels like we would lose

The stream is furious and strong
and most are washed up in it on their way to the unknown
it's hard to fight the current and It takes up all my
strength
but when I'll look up I will feel sun upon my face

So take my hand and come with me
we might not be rich but dammit, we'll be free
and when you see me turn around just push me up the stream
we'll join our hands together and go carve ourselves a dream
