Do What You Will?

Some people I meet
Running 'round
With their head in a bubble
They don't see you or feel me
And I have seen
Mindless minds
Trying to like trouble
They don't frighten me.

It's obscene
In the extreme.

Some people I meet
Acting cleever
'Cause their telephone's modern
They don't impress me
And I can't explain
Don't be bothered
If they're easten or southern
There are colours they cannot see.

If you know your name
You can light your flame
Don't play their game.

Do what you will with your life
I know that you will survive
The people you meet in your life
Will keep you alive.

Some people I meet
Open their eyes
And see what is coming
They inspire me
So try to be
Somebody better
Than me
Don't look up to me.

If you know your name
You can light your flame
Don't play their game.

Do what you will with your life
(Whatever you decide)
I know that you will survive
(Through the thick and the thing of life)
The people you meet in your life
(Your mother and your wife)
Will hold you until you can fly
Will keep you alive.
