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
