Choose

There was a time when I was in touch
With something grand, it meant so much
I thought Id give my all to get there

Now just a long-gone memory
Lost in a world I never see
I dont recall what it was I felt yeah

(Chasing your tale and never starting your story
Finding your but so you will never find glory)

Throw out my dreams and all that I felt
Theyre just dead weight under my belt
As I prove daily through my actions

I prefer reacting to the feed
No sense of who I want to be
Im just the sum of my distractions

But now and then I get to see
A sudden burst of clarity
About the one

(When I look back what is it I want to see
Did I play it safe, run away
When things got too hard for me
Or did I choose to become)

who I could be

And then the stream pulls me back in
Blocks out that place Ive never been
No more dream means no more tension

So I continue on this road
Go into full unconscious mode
Feel comfort in my automation

(Chasing your tale and never starting your story
Finding your but so you will never find glory)

Too hard
Too far
Too old
I fold

But now and then I get to see
A sudden burst of clarity
About the one

(When I look back what is it I want to see
Did I play it safe, run away
When things got too hard for me
Or did I choose to become)

who I could be
