For now

I love this song ... It's a reminder that nothing is permanent in this world. so we should cherish the good stuffs and make the most of it. We should not waste time regretting or worrying about the not-so-good ones. As Princeton put it, "And we'll accept the things we cannot avoid, for now"

Good or bad, they are only here - FOR NOW.

Everyone goes 'round a little empty inside.
