Life
Life is the experience that you just don't get
So bittersweet with all of the love and hate mixed together
Can't seem to get the respect
Seeing without looking hard enough to see that truth
Getting that fulfilled feeling you can't replace
The longing for liberation
For the sweet taste of freedom
Wisdom escapes your grasp
You better hope all of this lasts
One single moment of happiness
One simple truth
There's no win or lose
No final hour
Life is the experience that you just don't forget
The hours,the days ,the weeks and all of the years
That lead up to your life
The magnificent colours you have allowed out into the world
The Little bits of you
Hold on to the pain
Jaded now blue
Let the grief hollow out your heart
Setting you free
Remember about the unknown greats you never got to be
All of the things you never could show
The empty promises made
All of your words start to fade
The dreams have died
You let it slip you let is subside
Turn all of your emotions inside out
Take a breath
Let the healing start
Life is the experience you just must start
