Life
So solemn how weak we are
The mind, such a treacherous plateau
Dancing in life on a runway of madness
We slip, we fall, our essence lost
Sorrow caves around our existence
When you can't have it all
And just a little claims too much
We weep for nothing but a moment of relief
For our tears shed the burden of our soul
Until, all too quickly, the rality coaster begins once more
Stripping us of our every being again and again...
