Why am I thinking far ahead
Why do I strive to understand
Instead of living in this moment?
How many years will have to pass
Until my life makes any sense
Or was I made for aimless roaming?

These questions follow me around
Like shadows, holding my head down

My mind's been roaming far
With no reason to stop
You're trying to join me
This life's too short to be unnoticed
You have to ask for what you're promised


Am I exploring or just lost
Is this my purpose and my cause
To sing for everyone to listen?
Sometimes the pressure's killing me
Am I where I'm supposed to be
Or am I merely here imposing?

These questions follow me around
Like shadows, holding my head down

Why, oh why, oh why
You hide when you gotta shine?

My mind's been roaming far
With no reason to stop
You're trying to join me
Sometimes you need to run
To finally turn around
And find the inner beauty

Sometimes you need to run
To finally turn around
And find the inner beauty
