Find Yourself

Take life by the horns said the babe to the sky
Don't look back to anything
Run with the wind so the problems don't catch up

Stop and listen to the soft patter of the stream
Elope yourself with the unknown
Open your mind to a cold, bitter winter morning
Don't say the pool is cold before you jump in

Buy yourself a ticket to a place you've never been
Have a glass of wine with a ghost
Talk to a man who doesn't want to listen
Say hello to a pretty lady whose saying good bye

Put the phone away for a minute
That artificial light is making your face dim
Go an hour without an update
Play some scrabble for a change

Call that person you've been meaning to call
Lose yourself in front of a crowd
Find your penny in the fountain
That water doesn't deserve your dreams

Walk around past the glazed eyes and the motors
Feel the brittle wall around your knowledge
Call to say happy birthday
Knock on the door to ask for flour

Act like you can't lose
Everybody will think you won
Wear your emotions with pride
Try to hike the trail no one's been on

Take the offer
Buy the drink
See the lights
Feel the earth

Don't make excuses
Throw seriousness out the window
Invite recklessness for dinner
Tell them shyness can't come

Never talk about what should have happened
Do what you feel
See the needle in the haystack
Find a heart in a black canyon

Be free
