I sit here thinking to myself

If there’s a point here,

’Cause now and then and this and that

Is not at all that clear.

I wish I had a little guy

That sat inside my head,

And pulled the strings to left and right,

And I could just be led.

At first, I looked above my head

To people, wise and old,

And when I failed to find joy,

I thought there was no gold.

I listened to all of their truths

And took them on as mine,

But though I really tried my best,

I never quite felt fine.

I then attempted to find truth

Through tales told in time,

But having lived in concepts long,

I never crossed the line.

Was lost again, but tricked my mind

That I was doing great,

And yet throughout all my life,

I always fought my fate.

I fought the truth about us all,

Yet now I hope to see:

That little guy inside us all

Is you, and them, and me.
