Comes down to choices 
on the way to yourself
Which road you take 
which hat you pick from the shelf

And though sometimes you feel 
your world's caving in
go follow your heart 
go listen to your heart

It comes down to knowing 
what you want out of life
The way you're growing
mixing darkness with light

and though confusion leaves you
stranded out here

Nothing's here to stay
No one of us
All's here for a day
So do what you must

Nothing's here to stay
no one of us
Silhouets of yesterday
shadows in the morning haze

Comes down to glimpses 
being projected in time
From behind the curtain
carved right into your mind

So you can see how life
takes back what it gives
You better follow your heart
You gotta listen to your heart

Comes down to honesty 
to be what you are
Might bring you liberty
or push you too far

And though we try our best 
to do the right thing

Nothing's here to stay
No one of us
All's here for a day
So do what you must

Nothing's here to stay
no one of us
Silhouets of yesterday
shadows in the morning haze
