Life Is Too Simple

Mankind is just a lucid mist
life is floating on a whisper’s wane 
Death is prowling on a good-bye kiss
We are drifting over treacherous terrain
Life is floating on a whisper’s wane 
Soon to fall from the motionless air
We are drifting over treacherous terrain
Lost in doubts and deep despair
Soon to fall from the motionless air 
Death is prowling on a good-bye kiss
Lost in doubts and deep despair
Mankind is just a lucid mist
