Seize the Day

‘Seize the day’ is what they say
Grab it tight and don’t let go
Do your best, and do it all
Everything, you’ve ever dreamed
Everything before it falls,
The sun into the ocean

Well I have seized the day
And this day’s forever mine
Because I have stopped time
For me

I have seized the day
And I can do whatever I like
Live and lie and take flight
To wherever I want to be.

I will forever be as I am
And the world will forever stay as I see it
Here, and nothing will change
No, nothing today will change
For I have seized the day
Carpe diem away

But if nothing is to change
Then what fervour drives my perpetual existence
If everything will stay the same
Then what have I seized the day for?
