This life's not fair

This life's not fair
Birthed in mystery
Our plans go awry
Try define normal

Attacks from there
Troubles right here
They are not happy
Chance to grow virtue

The pain hits home
Hearts bleed hope
Blow will not be hard
Endurance we have

Truth be told
T'is a bitter pill
Out of choices
Press on we will
