"What has life to offer me when I grow old?
What's there to look forward to beyond the biting cold
They say it's difficult, yes, stereotypical.
What's there beyond sleep, eat, work in this cruel life
Ain't there nothin' else 'round here but human strife
'Cause they say it's difficult, yes, stereotypical
Gotta be conventional, you can't be so radical.
Chorus:
So I sing this song to all of my age
For these are the questions we've got to face
For in this cycle that we call life
We are the ones who are next in line
We are next in line."
This song " Next in Line " by After Image was very famous here in the Philippines way back 90's. (I'm a certified batang 90's). Back then, I just enjoyed singing this song (have I told you I'm a Frustrated singer! ), while practicing how to strum my guitar (frustrated musician pa gyud). But this time it hits me differently. What I've been asking myself now are questions that always got me thinking, wondering.
What have I done my whole life?
What's my purpose?
Do I really deserve to have what I have now?
Am I happy? Am I being me?
Or am I even worthy of this very precious life?
Is it just me, or am I just being too dramatic? I might sound like a lonely soul to you, but believe me I'm not.
Do follow my next articles as I am about to unfold the untold stories about me, my life and everything that's been running in my head. (often random thoughts)
P. S. I'm not good in writing (hasta sa writing, frustrated gihapon hehe) and left with few vocabularies after pretty Odette hit us 😅 😁 , so please bear with me.
So, can I see you in the next line!?!... 🤗
Upon reading this, I told myself I'm a bit crazy,🤣 I thought you construct a poem but later on when I saw the word "chorus" , OmG! It's a song. That shows how I am not familiar with that song, so funny of me hahahahhaha.
Anyways, I am truly grateful to add you as my new circle of friend. I am glad that I met you this new career of mine, as you told me, we have lots of common and can't wait to ride ups and downs with you.
