Headed towards unknown places and I can remember the last time
when I was comforted by not knowing if I walked straight in line
And even though I wouldn't know what I was doing in a day or two
it didn't get me scared of anything that I was going through

That is when she told me sometime it will start to matter
If someone will stick around in times of worse and better
We slowly glanced our watches cause we didn't want to know
what the lady meant by saying "this is not how life's gonna go"

As we grew older, we still didn't seem to care
Though we learned about life that it sometimes wasn't fair
To us it was another trip of joy, those thoughtless acts of youth
It took me years to figure out we simply avoided the truth

Still headed towards unknown places, though it doesn't feel quiet the same
cause now it got me worried at times, I guess experience is there to blame
Yet I'm willing to take chances, when there's the opportunity
Though I once learned the hard way, so please be careful around me
