Press On

It's gotta be somethin' else... it's gotta be something
Succulent, satisfying, sincere -
There's gotta be a reason to get up in the morning,
To allow the lungs to continue to do their job without
A sob, a gasping for breath, or the eternal questions,
"WHY?" "WHAT IF?" "IF ONLY?" "HOW COME?"

Why not - just try to take a stab - cliche-ly,
You really do only have one life to live after all!

Jump out of that plane - don't be a drain on the psyche
Of those who are sick of your insecurity and self-hate!

It's gotta be something' else... it's gotta be something
Rich, rewarding, restorative -
There's gotta be a reason to get up and get out
To allow the need to be fulfilled instead of
A fearful resignation to the crushing blow of unhappiness
Found on the arid desert of deserted aspirations.

It's gotta be somethin' else... it's gotta be something...
