What now?

Location

What happens after graduating?
After all the tests and days in class
Is it true what they say?
That when you graduate
There's a light at the end of a dark tunnel
called a career
Or maybe it'll be an office cubicle
They say it'll be quick and painless
But I'm scared to go out there
They say you cannot survive without passion
yet you cannot live off your love of art and music
I have spent too many days listening to others
all I know is from textbooks 
I didn't study for the test about how to find myself
and now I am lost.
