The time to be alive

There comes a time in everyone’s life,
When the winds don’t blow and the words don’t rhyme,
When the effort seems vain and the world is gay,
All you feel is the pain in the light of the day.

When things go south,
And it makes no sense,
And the words out of your mouth,
Start to build a fence.

So you push people away,
Though you want them to stay.
Now the words do rhyme
But you feel the same.

You know it’s tough being strong.
And now the day seems long
But you still sing the song
Where your whole world went wrong.

But it’s the time to see
When the world is blind
And it’s the time to be
The master of your mind.

And it’s the time when you have to strive,
It’s the time when you have to dive.
And it’s the time when you feel alive
Yes, this is the time when you feel alive.
