    You whisper promises of eternity,
    And that feeling you give when I've been trampled.
    When all good in life has been up-chucked
    spit out and stepped on, you are there
    Laughing. Laughing not at I but at them.
    We pass by the meaning of life everyday
    and never stop to say "Good Morning"
    We never appreciate whats always there,
    but always it is there.
    When your best friend stabs you in your heart
    It will be there,
    and when you've finally reached your paradise
    It will be there.
    For life is always gold for the old
    and pennies for the living.

    We seek forever, and forever is never.
    But what isnt, is truth, what honest lives
    we spit on, what honest lives we mock.
    Why can't I see the future?
    Why can't I change the past?
    Why must we ask such questions
    Which we have no right to ask.
    We own nothing but ourselves.
    Our thoughts and feelings too.
    Our emotions often unsteady
    but we must reach out as far
    as you can to grasp the truth.

    We can't still be human,
    We are a disgrace to our intentions
    From event to invention.
    To Addiction to intervention.
    I cannot focus attention.
    We fall, We try,
    We crawl, We fly,
    But we hear, and lack to listen.
    For when I walk my way,
    I wave at the flowers, and Greet the day.
    and I laugh along with them.
