Reasons

Walking through an empty room,
thinking about how you are making it through in life
Wondering what the world has in store for you.

Looking back and reflecting on what happened in the past,
seeing the reasons why you end up doing the same thing again
later on in the future.

Searching for clues that have no excuses,
you sit there, wondering the reasons why
your life is the way it is.

Believing that you can be a successful person,
even though you have made some mistakes, you
turn a page and make a brand new story.

Somewhere, somehow, someone is thinking about
Who they really are
Wanting to take two steps forward, but take three steps back
Although their life is built on reasons, they live by consequences
