Life Is Too Brief
Life Is Too Brief.
I wasted time and now I look at you
In a situation, I’ve also been through
I keep my lips buttoned,
Tongue between teeth,
You’re calm above
Turmoil beneath.
I gave you my thoughts, brutal or not
The angel doesn’t realise what she’s got
Watching you wriggle
A fish on the line
I’m glad she’s yours
Happy not mine.
There’ll be a moment, you’ll grab a bag
Pack up your troubles, load up your Jag
I see it coming
Don’t be afraid
Stick with your mind
You’ve been betrayed.
Time to step in, take a walk in our shoes
The moment is coming to end this abuse
Freedom inspires
Taste the relief
Come smell the roses
Life is too brief.
