curious girl


she's a curious girl
of the world around
notices every sight and sound
she wonders what's next
what door to walk through
she wonders about people
why they do what they do
new thoughts in her head always seem to explode
so many thoughts
such a heavy load
she's a curious girl
who doesn't want to fail
how she wants to know every single detail
about life and love and this great big world

there are zillions of thoughts in her head that swirl
she listens, she thinks, she wonders ...
oh-what a curious girl

indifference

stand for something
or fall flat on your face
the world is changing at such a fast pace
as the world evolves, it leaves less room for gray
we are faced with choices every single day
do we stand our ground or take the easy way out
do we worry about image and leave the lost with doubt?
we must remind ourselves of what life is all about
in a split second we can choose to stand out or blend in
but the choices we make can determine our end


can we show the world we have something different,

if indifference is all we show?
if we strive to blend in how will they ever know...
that there is freedom from the lives they live

and joy beyond their sorrow
are we're so busy being "cool" that we can't see past tomorrow?

one day we'll stand before the throne
every choice we have made will then be shown
let's choose now to stand up tall
and not just be content while the lost around us fall
we can make a difference now, it's not too late
let your voice be heard, there's no time to wait !

in a world where mediocrity is becoming the norm...
