Notes: This is a song about sometimes feeling passive in your own life, about feeling like you sometimes just let things happen instead of taking decisive action. I'm not saying I feel this way all of the time. I've mustered the will to be active in a great many important decisions, after all. But sometimes I feel like I'm stepping back too much, letting the chips fall and waiting to see what happens. It can be an uneasy feeling. I consider this song to be a little push to get myself going.
lyrics
Leave it up to me
I should never say
Floating on a current
Let it lead the way
Leave it to decide
The better part of things
Leave it up to signs
Whatever chance will bring
I don't want to be a fallen leaf
I don't want to be a scattered dream
I want to be a part of something
The sun is sure to shine
'Cause that's the way of days
The moon will come out some nights
And sometimes hide away
I don't want to be a fallen leaf
I don't want to be a scattered dream
I want to be a part of something
