I didn't choose this life
It chose me
Wandering around without a clue each day
Til the music showed me the way
A child who once was lost was soon found in song
Discovering that piece that was missing all along

Why don't I
Have a kid
Find a job
And call it quits
Well, I would
If I could
But I can't
So I won't

I once woke up inside of a peculiar dream
My world was coming apart at the seam
When I awoke, I knew that I had to chase the soul
If I did not try, then how would I ever know

Why don't I
Have a kid
Find a job
And call it quits
Well, I would
If I could
But I can't
So I won't

What would I do if it wasn't for you?
Instead of the ocean, concrete for a view
What would I do if my love was eschewed
Something I hope would never come true

Why don't I
Have a kid
Find a job
And call it quits
Well, I would
If I could
But I can't
So I won't
