As an individual, who is part of the world socio-economic system, my actions seem so insignificant. But I have always been struck by how, whenever there was a catastrophe of some sort, there was always a story of how someone's bad luck or good fortune was the result of a specific decision they had made. For example, missing a flight, changing flights, arriving early or arriving late, just everyday decisions. And so it seems that every decision we make has an impact. This thought led to an idea for a song and 'Every Decision' was born.
My everyday world begins with an early morning start
Coffee by the window and some time for contemplation
Thinking through the day and all the decisions I need to take
Things seem so important but is there really so much at stake
Do I stay or do I go
Or shall I wait a few minutes more
Shall I hurry or take it slow
It only matters if I say so
Every decision that I make still shapes my destiny
Will today by the day things change maybe I’ll finally live my dreams
Every decision that I make what will they mean for me
Live today like it’s the only day I’ll see how life turns out for me
Do I stay or do I go
Or shall I wait a few minutes more
Shall I hurry or take it slow
It only matters if I say so
It’s another day and still it’s an early morning start
I step out of the front door with the usual expectations
It feels like a normal day I know the routine by heart
But something keeps on telling me to tear routine apart
Do I stay or do I go
Or shall I wait a few minutes more
Shall I hurry or take it slow
It only matters if I say so
Everyday decisions that I make still shape my destiny
Will today by the day things change maybe I’ll finally live my dreams
Everyday decisions that I make what will they mean for me
Live today like it’s the only day I’ll see how life turns out for me
Do I stay or do I go
Or shall I wait a few minutes more
Shall I hurry or take it slow
It only matters if I say so
