Life Story
I heard that if ever you see atear fall
some where near by a story's being told.
i've seen enough tears to fill the sea
yet no happy eneding as been told to me,
the odds placed against the cause may justify the means
if you live life as a nightmare is death a dream.
dont let your success go to your head your failings to you heart but take your
wake in you strife.
they say every time a child is born, someone somewhere dies
so i thank the person who died for the start of my life.
if my life is a performance at what part will i deserve the applaud,
as no eyes may judge me but those of the lord.
will life ever slow down as its moving to fast,
would you be fully prepared to sacrifice your future to edit your past,
so it further suits you and cuts your problems loose,
but with no future to appreciate tell me what is the use. if you should wish or ever
should choose,
to take a walk in somebody else's shoes.
but for you to do such those shoes would have to fit,
and even if they did.
would they take you through the same expierence or down the same path,
would you cry their every tear and share their every laugh.
when the end is far dont yield as you still may make it,
when god gives a problem he gives to those who can take it.
