Who we are

We go through life
Looking for something
That defines who we are

Perhaps it's money
What can wealth bring you
Are you gonna be satisfied
With all the riches
In the world

We go through life
Looking for meaning
That shapes who we are

Perhaps it's fame
What can stardom bring you
Are you gonna be satisfied
With all that attention
In your face

We go through life
Looking for grounding
That composes who we are

Perhaps it's success
What can a career bring you
Are you gonna be satisfied
With all those pressures
In your day

We go through life
Looking for comfort
That bounds who we are

Perhaps it's friendship
What can a friend bring you
Are you gonna be satisfied
With all those secrets
In your diary

We go through life
Looking for solice
That fortifies who we are

Perhaps it's love
What can a lover bring you
Are you gonna be satisfied
With all the closeness
In your nakedness

We go through life
Looking for soul mates
That choose who we are

Perhaps it's destiny
What can fate bring you
Are you gonna be satisfied
With all but that one
In your time

From the heart
Char
