A Life Less Lived

Take a look around you and tell me what you see,

People’s lives a-plenty, all buzzing like a bee.

But what are they really looking for

When their eyes are to the floor?

Do you really want to be like them, 

Living a life less lived? 

Not I, no way, this isn't what I want,

I want to live a life in freedom, a life that has been lived.

I want to find my happiness; 

This surely must be it...

But look a little closer and cracks you will a-spy,

So dig a little further, until you reach your goal.
