Life According To George Seal

I think that lifes a beating heart
   That needs to draw a breath.
   Where open eyes don't see the truth
   Until they stare at death.
   As no two minds will think alike
   Forever there's unrest.
   And nerves in time they will get lost
   When they can't stand the test.
   Some mouths will never open
   Unless they're telling lies.
   But knowledge of these moments
   Should make us very wise.
   Yet mankind shows indifference
   And will ignore the cost
   Before their spirits broken
   And life on earth is lost.
