Odd are the ways of the
Human mind
And even more eccentric the
Temperament of mankind
We choose to stay safe in a mental sanctuary
And refuse to set ourselves free
Clinging to familiar ways
Chained to gone by days
We fear the winds of revolution
And shirk all that spells evolution
Maintaining status quo
Seems easier than going with the flow
We’d rather choose to be the torpid river
Over becoming the gushing stream
We seldom stray from the safe path
To chase and live a dream
When the caresses of time start to tell
We learn to step out of the shell
And then we start to know
To learn to love, live and grow
Is to open your arms to change
And let go of our inhibitions
Of all that is novel and strange
