Ring Wondering
Today we’re again standing on top of that round starHey! We’re standing here on our own two feetStill, how do I put it? That itself is a miracleHaven’t we been forced to not give up on the universe?
Talking about the past, that reminds meAll our teachers used such difficult vocabularyTo lecture to us in monotone
But I’ve already forgotten the names of those people who had something to prove
It’s not like I hold onto the feeling of having no interest in things like thatSo in the meantime, let’s get done whatever you all have been forced to doYou may’ve been called things like idiot, stupid, or a clumsy good-for-nothingBut see here, you’re still alive and breathing in this moment
You tell me I could get closer to that beautiful perfect circle I see from afarIf I stare at the parabolaBut still I’m just gazing at the horizon with all my might
Somewhere, some haughty old man’s insisting thatDreams are vast and superficialLike he’s all that
Turns out I don’t even think that, don’t even want to think that
’Cause nobody else is gonna be like youAnd nobody wants to live one more timeThat’s right! If you could change your birth, no one except God would be privy to the probabilityOf whether you’d be reborn as another person or yourself againWe don’t understand this whole “being born” into this world thing
Would it be all right to inquire about one thing I want to ask?
Could you answer if I asked what you’re thinking, what you’re feelingAnd what it is you’re able to do at this very moment?Nobody else is gonna be like you
’Cause nobody else is gonna be like youAnd nobody wants to live one more timeThat’s right! If you could change your birth, no one except God would be privy to the probabilityOf whether you’d be reborn as another person or yourself againWe don’t understand this whole “being born” into this world thing
