matters
i've walked the wire without a net
and often done what i'd regret
when i get old and look back
on all those wasted years
did i learn my lessons well
at the end, is it heaven or hell
-- or an endless fall
down a bottomless pit
did i exist to please myself
or dance to songs for someone else
-- and smile
at what they said and did
and in the end, as we all know,
we can't take with us, when we go,
what we held close
when we were here.
leave behind the endless chatter -
start looking for what really matters.
