Analysis of Change
He waits for the right moment to pounce
When everything is still, he moves something just an ounce
When he does, the world comes crashing down
Turning a lot of smiles into frowns
Change comes at the times when everything is good
When things are finally not misunderstood
The worst part is that he doesn't feel bad
Change doesn't see that he is making people sad
All the adjustments being made
Just make everyone wish it would have stayed unswayed
He walks around looking for prey
Change will make everything different than today
