forever we stand
through the onslaught at hand
united as one
till our task be done
as the battles rage
we remain the sage
and calmly go around
when a solution cannot be found
and thus venture forth
on some unknown course
until in the end
when everything has been
we can stop to relax
no more emotions to tax
and set aside our strife
to enjoy the wonder of life
and at last we've achieved
the idea we long believed
that the core of our being
is the best organ for seeing
doing what you feel
is the only life that's real
and in the final day
the last thing left to say
is whether you were led
by the heart or by the head
and would you trade
any of the decisions that you made
