Why do you tremble so? Why do you always run away?

Someone will use that as a knife.

You only live once, you only get one chance.

but you waste it all away, sitting on your ass.

there's so much to see and so much to do.

and you don't know what to do.

so you lock the door and close the blinds

and watch your netflix show in the TV light.
