The Meaning of LIfe I spend all of my time in search of answers Looking for meaning in this thing we call life The quest has taken me over like some philosophical cancer And left me with two blackened eyes Like some husband who beats his wife Because I'm married to the idea That there is truth to be found So much so that my feet No longer touch the ground My head is in the clouds And it's lonely in the sky I wish that I could give up this search But I must find the reason why Why do my feet walk upon this Earth Where will I go when I die What about God, Gods, or Goddess Do they really exist Or are these just words That flow from our lips Will the answers I seek Ever be within my grasp Or am I doomed to move through life Lost, lonely, and confused Hiding behind this expressionless mask That conceals all of my bruises From the blows that I took Every time I thought I knew What turned out to be a lie Masquerading as the truth I have this thirst for knowledge Deep inside,that I can never quench No matter how hard I try It's driving me so insane That I shout and I cry If I thought it would help I would look forward to death I would blow out my own flame with the last of my breath I give up, I can't take it I'm through with this shit If there is truth to be found If there's any meaning to life I don't want to know it anymore Fuck the reason why If I waste all of my time Digging holes in search of gold I'm going to miss the life I could have had When this young man has grown to be old Instead I'm going to live my life The way I think it should be And remember not to take for granted What's already in front of me There's so much beauty waiting to be found In the world that I can see That I can't believe all the time that I lost Forgetting to just be free
hi there this is wild..with words of truth...i love what you are saying in this piece.... to give in and live is a path we seek ..all humans seek.. maybe pain becomes part of this need for knowledge. just as love...becomes a need also... lovenpeace from saff life is fucking hard...but its worth the world to be alive..and free..
Thank you for the comments saffron Hippie Anthem Plug into the universe And go along for the ride Hear the music of the spheres And get lost in the vibe Remove those rosey glasses Behind which you hide If you never gain experience You'll never feel alive Listen to the colors And taste the groovy sounds Float in outer space Or meld into the ground Dance beneath the moonlight Blow a kiss up to the sun The world is like a rainbow Many colors spring from one Love your sister and your brother Lift them up when they are down The Earth is your mother You are her child And she is proud
Angels and Devils Angels speak softly And talk only of love They live for religion And heaven above They condemn the senses And the pleasure they give They are as meek as doves And innocent as kids Devils speak boldly And are not afraid to hate Religion is their prison So they tear down the gates They revel in the senses And the pleasure they give They are as wise as serpents For experience they live Angels and Devils can exist Within the human mind The manifestations of Opposites combined Within a single being The two have become one As wise as a serpent And meek as a dove
