What do you say when you’re going to leave

And the thought of it just takes you down to your knees

But you can’t seem to stop the path that you’re on

You think you’ve arrived at the dark’s newest dawn?

Well, my child, I hate to have to say

This is the plight, the path, and the way

It’s all part of this crazy life that you chose

And I know that sometimes it really does blow

But keep moving on and take that next step

Even if the path doesn’t appear direct

All of these losses, they’re part of the plan

Your only part is to make sure that you stand

Up from the falls and the spills that you take

I know it feels like you can’t catch a break

You’re strong and sensitive, that’s how it is

At some things you’re poor, at other things a whiz

Take what you’ve got and give it your best

Stop treating it like you’re taking a test

Whose grade defines your rank amongst the rest

Life is so much more than that

And if you keep your focus, you’ll always adapt
