Life
Life goes by too fast,
There is nothing you can do to stop it,
It's hard to live knowing existence is a joke,
No matter how happy we live we will die,
No matter how many friends we have or how many lives we touch no one will remember your name,
No matter how hard you try,
You can't stop it,
An ever approaching doom,
Helplessness is the condition of any sentinel being,
Trapped under pressure,
Souls die before the body,
Smothered by the world in which we live,
There is no escape or relief,
No light at the end of the tunnel just life,
Just life,
Where did it go?
There is nothing you can do to stop it,

No matter how hard you try,
You can't stop it,
An ever approaching doom,
Helplessness is the condition of any sentinel being,
Trapped under pressure,
Souls die before the body,
Smothered by the world in which we live,
There is no escape or relief,
No light at the end of the tunnel just life,
Just life,
Where did it go?

is there any way to sugar coat the brutal truth?
