You've got the whole world around

For the past half a year, I've always been on the chase of life surprises. It's quite challenging, and to tell the truth, a bit tiring. From the rejection of Stanford, to the opportunity at BCG, and all the followed ups-and-downs. Now that I'm preparing to leave TW in less than 10 days. Haha, always on the run :P

In the time like this, there is really one song that could soothe one's busy and worried heart. Daniel Powter - Whole World Around.

(lyrics adopted from ptt.cc/lyrics)


Whole World Around

Life’s been good i can’t complain so far…
designer clothes expensive caviar
and gated homes to keep the wolves at bay
tinted glass to hide my guilt and shame…
   
Neon signs and vagrants at the door
broken values, needles, liquor stores
won’t somebody help me to believe
help me to deny the things i see
   
(*)
Now whatever comes your way
sometimes you win
sometimes you lose
when it all comes down you make it through

You got the whole world around x2
something tells me not to make a scene
open up your heart and let me in…
   
(*)
I've tried as far as enough to lead my arm in minds
receives every words I know still were saying in the skies
take me, wake me , push me down, as long as I'm understood
like a soldier's view
from the bomb to the tomb
the towers I forget ever knew.

Ah, what a song. This is for those who feel sorry for themselves, but instead they are simply too lucky to have overlooked all the blessing.
