Pre-Historic Mammal

Pre-historic mammal

You’re a pre-historic mammal that’s trying not to fade away
Every time you struggle you make the same old mistakes

It’s a world in which we trouble finding different ways to stay
There’s a star up in the sky that was always giving light today

This was the beginning of the stumble that the universe gave us grace
We only get one chance and now the man is scratching his head while death becomes the human race.

Reading this reminded me of the first moments of the film "2001 A Space Odyssey". Good write.
