When All's Said and Done

Suddenly a light and I was all confused Suddenly I'm here I had no time to choose Suddenly a pain and I began to cry How to start a journey without knowing why Now I'm a just small boy so completely lost Now I'm just flotsam on a tempest tossed Now I'm being yelled at for everything I do How to lean the rules and understand what's true Suddenly a book is there for me to read Suddenly the words are all I really need Suddenly I'm aware of who I have to be How to start the journey of understanding me Suddenly the years are passing just like that Suddenly I’ve found a place to hang my hat Suddenly I see the nature of the plan How to take the journey now I understand Suddenly it's time the journey takes its course Suddenly I find that I have no remorse Suddenly enlightened I'm ready for the end How to accept death as your very best friend No one knows No one cares It's only you The one who shares
