It’s easy to go with the flow

To love the ones who love us back

To loathe the ones who may not love us back

But I never know.

It’s easy to go with the flow

To be closer with the ones who are close to us

To  be distanced from the ones who are farther from us

But I never know.

It’s easy to go with the flow

To agree with those who agree with us

To disagree with those who dispute with us

But I never know.

It’s easy to go with the flow

To act like the ones who act like us

To eat like the ones who eat like us

But I never know.

It’s easy to go with the flow

To walk like the ones who walk like us

To speak like the ones who speak like us

But I never know.

It’s easy to go with the flow

To jump into an ocean of hatred

To drown in a sea of rage

To wallop into a valley of vanity

But I never know.

It’s easy to go with the flow

It’s harder to swim against the current

when the current itself seems swimming

with the tide of time

But I never know.

It’s easy to go with the flow

To think like the ones who seem to think like us

To live like the ones who seem to live like usAlthough that could just be a facade

But I never know.
