What should I do, just around and go home?
No not now, it took you so long to get here.
What should I do, ask them to take me back?
No not now, it's been too long.
What should I do, just stand here and disappear into the crowd?
No, you're already invisible.
What should I do, forget why I'm here and go somewhere new?
No, there's no place left to go.
Then tell me, what should I do?
Stop and wait, wait for the world to stop spinning, wait for your knees to stop shaking, wait for your hands to stop sweating, wait for your lips to stop quivering, wait for your heart to stop racing, wait for your mind to stop screaming, wait for your soul to stop wanting, wait for the crowd to stop gasping, wait for their eyes to stop mocking, wait for the vultures to stop circling...
Then take a step forward and start walking, because you have a journey to complete, a destination to reach and there isn't much time.... no time to look back and regret, no time to look ahead and fear, look around you and be grateful for the distance you have covered, thankful for the places you have seen, nostalgic for the time that has passed, sorrowful for what you have lost, and hopeful for what has yet to happen....but then.... keep walking.
