Not Knowing

Life goes by unnoticed It passes by unseen We let the good moments pass Not knowing what they mean Life ends too early For the good and bad They leave this Earth behind Not knowing what they had Endless days in school Working dead end jobs They lived their lives hating Not knowing they'd been robbed They caught themselves watching Those who had it all Watching them with envy Not knowing that they'd fall They let the good times pass With hated in their eyes Now their time is up The people that will rise Their families filed with sorrow By life passed by unseen The moments that they lost Not knowing what they mean Goodbyes are said and tears did fall These people left their lives Not knowing they had it all Paying jobs and families Filled with endless love They'll notice now it's over They'll see it from above They can never get it back Those memories that they missed Those moments they passed by They can only reminisce
