Everybody's Changing

Everybody's Changing by Keane
You say you wander your own land
But when I think about it
I don't see how you can
You're aching, you're breaking
And I can see the pain in your eyes
Cos everybody's changing
And I don't know why.
So little time
Try to understand that I'm
Trying to make a move
just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and
remember my name
But everybody's changing
And I don't feel the same.
You're gone from here
Soon you will disappear
Fading into beautiful light
cause everybody's changing
And I don't feel right.
So little time
Try to understand that I'm
Trying to make a move
just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and
remember my name
But everybody's changing
And I don't feel the same.

This is exactly how I'm feeling right now. I'm not sure whether it's because of my odd working schedule but it seems like things are happening around me yet I remain still. My nephews are growing up...my kids in church are getting older...my younger sis has is now living on her own in the U.S....my friends are getting married...some are breaking up...some are having babies...some are getting promotions...travelling.....I stay the same.

Sometimes it scares me...I'm having a hard time catching up...I wish for the world to slow down...but it won't. I should be somewhere by now...I'm not sure whether I've somehow advanced...I wish someone would tell me. Looking around...hearing what other people say about what they think of me...of what I do...my job...my appearance...I often get the notion that I haven't moved.

Pardon me for sounding this way...I'm ok...I'm just thinking.
