The world is so big

Full of strange and marvelous things

I'll never know just where my place in it is

Or where I'm meant to go

I'm a fool

I don't need to be reminded

But I am so intentionally

Leave no stone unturned they say

I say never waste an open opportunity

Life is full of them, and any one in particular can change your life in a startling number of ways

All it takes is a moment and a thought

Maybe even a good song

The clean life is so different

Less fun perhaps, and more serious

But that transition is finally hitting me

School, work, relationships

So I may be a fool

And I may be making choices I may regret later

But I'll deal with the pain then just as I am now, and always have

Because one day I will find happiness

And on that day I can put all of this behind me

An army of skeletons finally laid to rest
