Black Swan (But I Know There is More to Life)

While I do feel ok
Have many good friends
Have a really good time at times

While I travel the earth
See the wonders of world
Chill in the sunshine

Fancy reading and learning
Understand the universe
Make a living alright

Seems like nothing’s missing
I can make ends meet
While I'm biding my time

But I know there is more to life

When I look around
See people passing
A face of despair

When I look at you
Can see your sad eyes
In search of substance

There might be many ways
To cope with boredom
Or mere exhaustion

There might be many ways
To entertain
Or numb the senses

But I know there is more to life

I'm trying hard
Not to waste my time
With too easy lies

I'm trying hard
To make sense of it all
Without excuses

I'm trying hard
To make a difference
Leave a mark in this world

I try to be part
Of something useful
Of any relevance

Cause I know there is more to life
