Lust For Life
No matter how much life hurts,
No matter how hard it squeezes your soul,
It grabs you by your guts
and shreds you to bits.;
The pain is excruciating,
You wanna die, but just couldn't;
If it's an addiction of a kind
You would atleast try to give it up;
But if you are high on life
And have been born with this affliction --
You don't wanna give up life,
You can't just let it go!
You are addicted to life for life!
