A New Day
Cast out your worries, don't look back,
for the road of tomorrow stretches far and
wide.
Let the past die as it should be forgotten.
Look beyond your troubled heart and fly free
toward the sky.
There is a new day being born, like a child
it rises to greet the day anew.
Live in the moment, for life is fleeing with
each tick of the clock.
Your days are numbered, make them count, for
what is life anyway if you just look.
Run, climb, be the inner child of the spirit
you once dreamed to be. Love, cry, show who
and what you are, you are alive. Be free
to live your life, your free.
