In an unexpected place,
At an unexpected time
For some unexpected reason,
I sat down to write this rhyme
It's a funny thing, life is
When things don't seem to fit
And you sit to think and wonder
And question life a bit
So why do we get the feelings
Which we never overcome?
In a world of deception
In a case that's never won
A theory undefined
A life that's left behind
A heart so full of doubt
What is it all about?
Bewildered children grow
Into adults still unaware
Is it a matter of destiny?
Are the answers really there?
We live our lives day-by-day
And eventually year-by-year
Not knowing where or how or why
With each laugh and every tear
Laughing and crying all in the same day
With a smile that follows a frown
Having someone who's there to hug
When your world is turned upside down
Beginning to end we live through time
We do just what is said
Not letting the things that bother us most
Interfere and mess with our head
It's all mapped out, and someday we'll find
What our fate will turn out to be
We'll get all the answers, and find the last piece
And realize what we never could see.
