Howl

If your life isn’t working

You have to ask why

Remember when we were young enough

To not fear tomorrow

Or mourn yesterday

And we were just

Us

And time was just

Now

And we were in the moment

Not rising through

Like arms in a sleeve

Because we had time

We had time to breathe

The bad times are here

The bad times have come

But life can’t be over

When it hasn’t begun

The lake shines and the water’s cold

All that glitters can turn gold

Silence the music to improve the tune

Stop the fake smiles and howl at the moon
