We go through life, believing we know much

When really life is unpredictable

It’s something we can’t touch.

We often think we know ourselves without a second glance

Life makes decisions for us

So instead of walking through life, we dance.

Often music changes, in length, and volume, and pace

We never know what is coming

It’s a fact we have to embrace

As we dance, we usually stumble and fall

But standing up again

Is what truly heals all.

When we get tired of dancing, and we start to yawn

Life tells us to get up,

For the show must go on.
