Who Do I Love

from Aiming At The Stars by John Greska

/

lyrics

Look at me
Look at everything I could be
Look at all the plans I’ve made
And the hands I’ve played
Now my tickets paid, I’mma get out of here

They’ve got time
There’s no point wasting mine
I’ve been working so damn hard
Gonna fly so far
Aiming at the stars and I’m out of here

But what of all the love I leave behind
And what could have been
Two roads diverged but there’s just one of me
Where do I even begin

Who do I love
When the birds stop flying up above
And the sun stops rising in the east
Productivity has ceased
But that doesn’t in the least
Stop me asking the question

Who do I love
When the clouds stop rolling through the sky
And the wolves stop howling at the moon
Need to figure out my tune
And I gotta do it soon
So keep asking the question

Who do I love

Look at them
Look at all the life they’ve lent
Look at the love they gave me
The scars they saved
And I have the nerve to get out of here

I could stay
This was my life anyway
And it was through help with them
And so in the end
It won’t matter if I got out of here

But what of all the hope I leave behind
And what could have been
Two roads diverged but there’s just one of me
How could I possibly choose then

Who do I love
When the birds stop flying up above
And the sun stops rising in the east
Productivity has ceased
But that doesn’t in the least
Stop me asking the question

Who do I love
When the clouds stop rolling through the sky
And the wolves stop howling at the moon
Need to figure out my tune
And I gotta do it soon
So keep asking the question

Who do I love

They ask you
What you wanna be when you grow up
but never tell you that the question and the answer
To the game are rigged
They mean well but I can tell you if I wanna win the prize
Then I gotta keep my eyes on it

So I put
Love into music and to movies and the little things that
Can’t get angry with me when I take it back
Everyone supports your dreams but there’s a guilt you feel cause
You know you won’t always be around to have their back

They say that
love is unconditional the thought is unoriginal but everyone I care for
Seems to follow that additionally
They have put the effort into climbing all my
walls without complaints and helping me go through it all

So in the
End am I just meant to stay and show all my appreciation or do
I bounce off of it and use it to break free and do I build a better
future try to make them proud of me or take a breather just do neither cause
I can’t choose

Who do I love
When the birds stop flying up above
And the sun stops rising in the east
Productivity has ceased
But that doesn’t in the least
Stop me asking the question

Who do I love
When the clouds stop rolling through the sky
And the wolves stop howling at the moon
Need to figure out my tune
And I gotta do it soon
So keep asking the question

Who do I love
