life

life



Life, life, life, damned life, full of hell, my soul to sell

An exchange of this filth and ruin for wealth and health

A small purpose the slightest of meaning, instead

Of this empty feeling

A life withering away, lost and fading 

Body ruined and broken no good no more

Soul decimated and ready to be cremated

Dreams die, replaced by nightmares and scares

Of the truth of life in the cold, cold, cold light of day

A penny for your thoughts the saying goes

A long time ago perhaps, I would have been

A very wealthy man, but alas my mind is numbed

And just the one thought remains, only to be

Answered after the end and this life has past me by,

Life, life, life, what was the reason for all this strife?
