AT THE FORK OF THE ROAD

LIFE HAS BROUGHT ME HERE,
DAY BY DAY 
THOSE DAMN CHOICES IV’E MADE 
HAS LED ME ASTRAY 

ITS BEEN A LONG HARD ROAD 
AND UPHILL CLIMB 
PAVED WITH FRUSTRATION 
AND UNSETTLED MIND 

BUT LIKE THAT FAITHFUL OLD TRAIN 
I JUST KEEP TUGGING ALONG 
ONE OUT OF TEN RIGHT..
THE OTHER NINE WRONG 

NOW I AM AT THE FORK OF THE ROAD 
WITH NO SIGNS OF DIRECTIONS 
NO CLUES OF BEYOND 
BUT THIS TIME THE ODDS ARE IN MY FAVOR 
A CHOICE OF GETTING ONE RIGHT 
OR ONE WRONG.
