A New Life
There won’t be any more living this way
He’s tired of being tired of it
He packs what he thinks he might need for a week
And decides he will buy whatever else he needs
As he goes along his new trail
He is finally excited with life
Sees a future where he didn’t before
And sees more than just one more day in front of him
That he isn’t sure he even wants to live
What life will hold he doesn’t know
And doesn’t much care
It will finally be life again
Instead of just existence
He smiles as he closes the door on his old life
And drives into the new one
He’s tired of being tired of it
He packs what he thinks he might need for a week
And decides he will buy whatever else he needs
As he goes along his new trail
He is finally excited with life
Sees a future where he didn’t before
And sees more than just one more day in front of him
That he isn’t sure he even wants to live
What life will hold he doesn’t know
And doesn’t much care
It will finally be life again
Instead of just existence
He smiles as he closes the door on his old life
And drives into the new one
