The World, Changing my Perception
Now going into the new year
I no longer know where to steer
Afraid of what is to come
because I'm constantly changing
mind, constantly straining
things changing so fast
things that matter are left in my past
I can't help but think ahead
I don't know how I'll go to bed
Telling myself, I know what I want to do
Knowing, that it simply isn't true
Here and now, that's all that matters
At least, that's what's said
Another voice makes noise
It says the opposite instead
So many different opinions
Telling me what to do
Crashing against my skull
Head's pounding, can't take it
I'll just have to follow my own path
Create it and make it
It's going to be okay
Keep moving because today is today
tomorrow, another day
