Life Goes On

I was living far in the future then
 Always thinking two or three moves ahead
 I did not see that everything I needed
 was right in front of me
 Precious moments that I let pass me by
 I was focused on what became a lie
 Everything I missed, all of those tears of joy
 that I will never cry
 Life goes on
 So I'm standing, inside I'm broken down
 And I'm walking but I just don't know how
 I'm trying not to look too far ahead
 and not live in the past
 Now I'll take it, whatever you can give
 I will be here, this moment's where I'll live
 Tomorrow may not come and even if it does
 I know she won't be there
 Life goes on
 And it doesn't stop for anything or anyone
 And I get the feeling that I'm being dragged along
 It's not right or wrong but it is always true
 And it just doesn't matter what I'm going through
 And even though I'm on my knees and begging it to stop
 The world still turns and life goes on
