[Chorus]
For all my progress
Measure of success
In all of this time
Know one thing sure
Better to be kind
[Verse 1]
My life as monk
Humility
Monastic codependency
My self denied
My sacrifice
My book knowledge confused as wise
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 2]
My plan of God
See hand divine
Meaning of life – purpose prescribed
Freedom from doubt
Sweet certainty
Child innocence naivety
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Sincerity
Crises of faith
Dogma belief – dried egg on face
My travels far
Decades away
Venus and Mars – capture the stars
[Instrumental]
[Verse 4]
Old age accept
Hindsight reflect
Wisdom of life experience
Now looking back
I’ve no regret
Maybe next time default to kind
[Repeat Chorus]
