You try so hard to plan your life
then find it's no use planning;
you'll cry yourself a river for
the madness you've been handed.
But everything's a jagged line,
don't try to make it straight,
enjoy the madness of your life,
trust chance, don't hesitate.
Stand passive in this hurricane
and this is what you'll get:
a life of gray and nothingness,
of boredom and regret.
