     Everyday holds choices 
     Most being numerous and unique 
     Each holds a different outcome 
     Due to what you act or what you speak 

     These decisions create a road 
     One where you go out and decide 
     What will you plan to do 
     Or where you will reside 

     But the choices are sometimes difficult 
     Not always going with the crowd 
     And when you try to make the right decision 
     People generally tend to disavow 

     It’s tough to live life through 
     With people always staring down your back 
     But go and just live it out 
     And make up in what you lack 

     Yet, don’t you ever wonder 
     How life would really be 
     If you had went the other way 
     Just what would you be able to see 

     You probably wouldn’t know 
     Your best and other friends 
     And maybe a different school 
     Your personality, though, still depends 

     Or maybe things wouldn’t change 
     ‘Cause others have influence too 
     And in the end all would be the same 
     But it’s hard to tell what’s true 

     Just look towards your future 
     And glance casually at your past 
     Then maybe one day you’ll discover 
     That everything is perfectly fine at last
