one hundred seventy

okay, so I'm gonna say it.

i'm not afraid to say it.

the clocks on my wall keep ticking

with the moments that I keep missing

okay, so I must confess that

i've settled for less under the guise that "i'm fine,"

but i'm done taking my life just one day at a time.

life's too short and quickly passing by-

so i'm gonna make the most of what is mine.

i've got so much to discover:

a hand I could lend another,

a word that could bring some healing-

is there any better feeling?

hold up,

i wanna see the beauty-

pause now,

so i can let it move me.

i wanna be simply here in the now

cuz i'm done missing out!

with eyes open wide,
i'm taking it in.
making the time mean all that it can.
i don't need a sign-
i just need to begin.
so with every second of every minute
i'm livin' in it - and.that's.how.i.say.it.
