What's Life

In the distant future,
what will happen to this world
What will happen to the one place
we call home, and will we be alone?
I don't understand the way it works
I don't know if ill be the first to figure it out
Or be the last person ever around

All i know is that life will test my patience
It will test my will to face it
And myself, i know, will somehow make it
Find the silver lining in it all
Find the silver lining, if there's one at all

In the back of my mind,
I question myself about life
I wonder what i might find,
If i found out the truth
My life will have changed forever
And i know ill stop looking
Looking forward to anything at all
Lose interest in life, thats all
Thats all at the end of the day

A new found vision,
makes me question my life
The best nights are when i feel all right,
And I'd stay up all night
The Emotions pile up on my conscious
The Sounds of Screaming haunt my dreams,
But its also very much like I've seen
Im tired of being paralyzed at my own problems
Tired of everything hurting me
Even when i could be, doing something
Mark my words, i will change my ways
The light will go out one day
and ill be responsible for it
Burn me in the sun, if i can't carry out what i say
Crush my heart, if thats what it takes, i don't care
Make me feel my own pain,
if thats what life commands me to do
Make me look like a fool, if that is how life wants to make me feel

Whats life, my friend
Should i say it again
Whats life, my friend
Should i stand with you
Is that what i should do
Satisfy me please
Just give me these
Tell me the secrets please

Its no wonder i shouldn't know
Going in alone with no one
I won't ask again, the question
Whats Life my friend?
