Choose your own path that you walk with great care

Your direction will be yours alone to bear

But though it may be long and many times go wrong

You're on your own this journey none can share

And there is no other way of stayin' alive

Just killing time nowhere to hide

Stayin' alive you can decide

It's always harder where two roads divide

And before us lies a choice that's not too clear

Many voices offer words upon your ear

Running through your head are some best left unsaid

Don't listen just to things you'd like to hear

Heading slowly through still waters dream away

But it's always growing shorter come the day

Throw your dreams away

None of us on this earth will be here

On our children will the sentence be severe

Still we carry on doing what we've done

An explanation I just can't see clear
