So It Goes

Akron/Family

I went away, away from this open heart,
Away from this place i started so long ago.
Out there i found, out in this lovely world,
So many people just like myself.
Just like them, i stopped giving my change,
To all the homeless people out on the street.
But i changed back. i give my change again,
To anyone who asks so long as i have a pocket.
Last night i save $1.80 on ice-cream at safeway,
Was it meant to be, an act of god or robbery,
I myself don't know, so it goes.

And so it goes
