I can change my life...

I came across this interesting MTV video song call Life sung by this young Japanese teenage singer and composer call Yui.

Why I say it is interesting is because it has a part that says "I can change my life"... which is part of what I'm feeling now. I guess I just want to go on into something more interesting or more passionate about.

There is a repeated line in the song that kind of hit on me.. "It’s because things aren’t simple, that I can go on living." ... does she mean the challenges in life makes us go on living?



Lyrics:
Life
--------------
Filled with mud in a town I’m not used to…
I can’t laugh the same and I’m walking with my head down
People – quickly passing by one another
Have they lulled their dream?
I’m still struggling
Rather then returning to your childhood days
I want to live in the present in a better way
I was born to be scared
I’ll go to a place where the sunshine fills
And spreading both arms out
will I be able to fly past that sky?
That’s what I thought
The wings that can make me fly away, are still invisible
It’s because things aren’t simple, that I can go on living.

I just pick up a small, wet puppy
And for a while I laughed so much that
My tears started to overflow.
“I just want to be loved, and loved again.” That’s what I said…
But I just can’t keep wishing for it.

In my childhood, there were
days that severely hurt my mama
I want to change it all
I go to a place where the sunshine fills
I want to tightly grasp this hand,
destroying that place, that time
I can change my life
But I really can’t tell everything that’s in my heart.
It’s because things aren’t simple,
that I can go on living.

I go to a place where the sunshine fills
and open up my map, but
I know… you know… that having doubts along the way can’t be helped..
I can change my life
All the days that have passed up to now
Have made the current me.
It’s because things aren’t simple,
that I can go on living.
