Rhythm Of Life

We can take a step back
But the rhythm will carry on.
Then we are out of sync
With the rest of the melody,
Trying to find our place
As a polyphony.
We wander in and out
In search of parity
But it's lost, it's gone
Too far ahead to catch.
We reach to discover
Our own beat to begin
A new rhythm of life,
A change to the sheet.
We begin new notes,
We start with a clef.
We know our own score
But how do we compete?
The orchestra is playing,
It never once stopped.
You tried to think
But it marched on
In the key of sharp
While your time was flat.
Now the world whispers
About around your ears.
Your lost in this world,
Your stanza isn't that.
