melody not remembered
lyrics:
don't react
take a walk
and find your way
in the dark
don't react
take the time
to sing the songs
that you like
don't react
think of all
the things that work
quite so right
don't react
count the times
you smiled and danced
in the past
don't you ever react
to the things you don't like
you will soon realize
you don't have to react
don't react
why should you
react when you
can just laugh
don't react
why should you
react when you
can relax
don't react
you can smile
and dance just like
in the past
don't you ever react
to the things you don't like
you will soon realize
you don't have to react
i think i wrote this songs just to give myself a pep talk during those
times when i had some frustrations along the way, and i felt really down
and discouraged. and i had many moments like these.
i just wanted to remind myself to never mind the setbacks and to just
forget them and to just keep on striving even harder to achieve whatever
i needed to achieve. and to just remember the good things that i have
done in the past and hope to do them again in the future.
i really wish i could remember the melody of this song so i could keep
on singing it to myself even today. maybe, i should try finding a
melody for this song again soon.
so now, we're done with the first song in this group B.
