[Verse 1]
Your life is not a story
With one cohesive plot
Most of it is boring
Except for when it's not
You don't have to be remarkable
You're more than a device
For other people's entertainment
You don't owe them all your life
[Verse 2]
Your life is not a testimony
Shared upon a stage
Your story isn't paperback
With pictures on each page
You are far more complex
Than beginning, middle, end
Before the plot is over
A new one will begin
[Verse 3]
Your life is no commodity
It can't be bought or sold
And everything will still be changing
Even when you're old
What you're doing now
You'll live again in fifty years
You'll think more fondly of the time you spent
Outside of your career
Your life is not a story
With one cohesive plot
Most of it is boring
Except for when it's not
You don't have to be remarkable
You're more than a device
For other people's entertainment
You don't owe them all your life
[Verse 2]
Your life is not a testimony
Shared upon a stage
Your story isn't paperback

Your life is no commodity
It can't be bought or sold
And everything will still be changing
Even when you're old
What you're doing now
You'll live again in fifty years
You'll think more fondly of the time you spent
Outside of your career
