What’s important in my life now?
I’ve lost track of my priorities
All out of order and lost in the wind
The music tells me to dance my worries away
And the TV tells me to drink my problems away
And my friends tell me think about it another day
But I know there has to be another way
To get my head back on
Get my mind back again
Keep my eyes set straight ahead
Bring my soul back from the dead
Forget everything they said
Take my own advice for a change
Listen to myself every once in a while
Sick of playing all of these games
It’s not always about being recognized
Being categorized, stereotyped
I’m not another statistic
‘Put on a little lipstick
And you’ll be fine’
But these words are not mine
I need to face the facts
And read the signs
I’m losing my heart and my mind
To the world, the people, the madness
I’m losing myself to the sadness
Of everyday routine
Get up, go to work, go to bed
And repeat
It’s time me, myself, and I meet
See if this is a disease I can treat
Without the help from others
Keep my family close
My parents, my sister, my brother
I need to hold them tight
Because I don’t have another
And family is underrated
The power of true love is underestimated
But the feelings of ‘love’ are overrated
And I need to see if my heart can make it
Survive the trials of the world
So that I can truly love again
So that my life won’t end
So that my morals won’t bend
Stop having my life drawn out for me
Because this is not the one I always wanted
Not the one I intended
Get back my true incentive
The first thing I set out to do
Get out of this rut the world has me in
And move
