MIDNIGHT TRAIN AWAY FROM PAIN
It's said if your plate's full to get a bigger one
If life was that easy it would always be fun
The Sun doesn't shine bright each & everyday
Things won't consistently go our merry way
Pendulums sway from blissful to melancholy
They don't hold back punches from anybody
Attacking the holy, the worldly & the wicked
At some point in time we'll all get afflicted
There are no tickets for the midnight train
Even in Georgia you'll endure some pain
Just have to try to maintain through it all
Looking for silver lining lessons in the fall
If life was that easy it would always be fun
The Sun doesn't shine bright each & everyday
Things won't consistently go our merry way
Pendulums sway from blissful to melancholy
They don't hold back punches from anybody
Attacking the holy, the worldly & the wicked
At some point in time we'll all get afflicted
There are no tickets for the midnight train
Even in Georgia you'll endure some pain
Just have to try to maintain through it all
Looking for silver lining lessons in the fall

A high ideal I hope to incorporate into my own world view
Thank You Sir Damon

"Things won't consistently go our merry way" is such a true statement, even for those who are constantly getting it wrong. It takes a lot of courage to learn from the lessons and grow as an individual.
Excellent verse Damon.
