Life can be a challenge
With so many ups and downs
Life isn’t fair at all, but
Roll with the punches, don’t quit
Learn from your mistakes

Through all their lifetime they smiled,
But a bump in the night,
Came as a fright,
And now they are all but wild.

This ravished soul
That's been torn apart 
A tortured mind

Already past their prime

And they take the spotlight from him
Now he is all but forgotten

do not think of me as someone

stuck on a time forlorn
granting all but sweet dreams
while the solemn moon gleams

can't help but smile when you
see one tumbling down the stairs.

Thanks to the lying wolf-crier on the block

As the time pass
Looking in
Not looking through
Seeing everything you can do
Want more
But find none
When the day is all but done

Shall I compare thee to a piece of clay?
Thou crack and crumble in light of the sun.
Thy beauty’s all but washed and burned away
All of my love for thee has been undone.

Trouble travels far.
Of its dark cloud
Not one sign, however
Broods here. Ever!

All but wraps and warm
Our minds around
For sea haze, does enhance
Dreamy romance.

Beyond the comprehension, of all but a few

Yet God’s mercy is steadfast and true

Granting understanding, more then what is due
