Titantic Life
we're all just dancing on the deck of our own Titantic
some about to swim in the Pacific
others about to drown in the Atlantic
some staring up into the sky
thinking how tiny the world is
others thinking it's gigantic
some of us are running for our lives
some are saving our children and wives
some are rearranging the chairs
some are walking elegantly down the stairs
some are playing a beautiful tune
some are staring up at the beautiful moon
some are looking down below
some are climbing into lifeboats and beginning to row
some are worrying about what will be
some are grateful for what once was
some are praying
while others are playing
many are crying
as others are cheating and lying
a few are treasuring the beautiful view
staring at the beauty inside of me and you
ready for a new life and ready to start anew
