Your eyes widen with the sight of chocolate,
Toys and gadgets hide in your pocket.
Sunshine pours all over your face,
Nothing could be misplaced
And you live on
You're a little older now,
The world's got you thinking how?
How did I go from innocence,
To pure resistance?
But you live on
Your job now stresses you out
All you can think of is doubt
Your family and friends turn their cheeks
And you cry out, "Am I weak?"
Yet you live on
The gray hairs seem to be adding up
You smile, seeing your child holding a pup
In your mind you remember
That gleam in your eye, that fire, an ember
And now finally you realize, that you lived on
