Sittin' down here by the riverside
staring at the stars out in the sky
and they're looking back
from years past
and the campfire cracks
like a stick in the woods
and the moon glows bright
like I know it should
and yet I know
that something's wrong
What do we do about life
We're just marking time
Looking for ways to thrive
All we do is survive
Tell me is that life
It's easy to say how hard it can be
to find the right path
through a thicket of weeds
but you may as well
take the road less traveled
well the moon and the stars
up in the sky
They make you forget about
all the men lining their pockets
with everybody's fear
What do we do about life
We're just marking time
Looking for ways to thrive
All we do is survive
Tell me is that life
Take a look around, do you like what you see
No human interaction, just a bunch of
lit up cell phone screens
Why do that today when we can worry tomorrow
give us one more day to delay our sorrow
but I know, we all know it's coming soon
What do we do about life
We're just marking time
Looking for ways to thrive
All we do is survive
Tell me is that life
Sittin' down here by the riverside
staring at the stars out in the sky
and they're looking back
from years past
and the campfire cracks
like a stick in the woods
and the moon glows bright
like I know it should
and now I know
ain't nothing wrong
Well, well, What do we do about life
We're just marking time
Looking for ways to thrive
All we do is survive
Tell me is that life
