Things We Choose to Care About

How can you just walk out on me Without a trace? I don't hear the sound of your voice I can't see your face On one side of the coin, there's a cure But on the other there's a curse Well, I'm living in the larger world now Where work brings worth To the things we choose to care about So what is life like for me now? No more easy victories of youth Just the things we choose to care about I know that I've more than I will ever need But I've learned that it does nothing to stop The reoccurrence of greed And there ain't enough whiskey in this world To ease a tormented mind So, I'm longing for that place in my dreams Where light brings life To the things that we choose to care about So what is life like for me now? No more easy victories of youth Just the things that we choose to care about Your memory It'll remain Always and forever As winter fades What still remains Always Just the things that we choose to care about So what is life like for me now? No more easy victories of youth Just the things that we choose to care about
