Live Cautiously, But Don't

Don't move, stay on the path & don't swerve
You always have crazy temptations but let them go.
Boys, what do they do but make problems
Causing such pains & sorrows, let them go.
Flee, the path of independence
You'll have your chance one day, sit & wait.
I know you wanna get up & play the part
Showing that teenagers are just too cool
Honey you have no idea how dumb you seem
Let time pass, let the world spin
Keep on waiting, your time will come
Waiting is the hardest part, but sit tight, one day you'll shine
Do you think I'M being stupid?
Have you any idea of who I am?
I'm like you. I want to act out, to get attention.
But I know a lot more than it may seem
Time goes slow for me, giving me a chance to capture it all
Circling all the main points, trying to keep every moment
I've tried to be independent, but at this age it's a waste.
Instead of being independent, we become caught in trouble
Unable to get away from all the mistakes we've made.
So play it safe, have fun but don't do anything stupid
One day you'll find the right guy & the thrill of life
Hold on for now, list what you want to do
For now the world is big & bad & you've no experience
Wait until you're out on your own, when you've nothing to lose
Play, & laugh, love & learn, break hearts along with your own
Take chances & make a million mistakes, because that's what life is about
Until then, just wait, don't move away from the path
You've your whole life ahead of you
Make the right choices for now, so later you can have fun
But then again what if you die today?
Live cautiously, but throw it all away.
