You win some,
You lose some
That’s how life works
Even though it hurts
Always a ****** road
Tends to get old
But we have to walk
No matter how much it hurts

That man found out
When that angel stole his heart
And boy, were they never too far apart

Until the lights of love faded,
And never came back.

She flew off, without a word
Not even a cough
Leaving that carcass of a man behind

No heartbeat, no soul
He begins to grow mold.
Curled up
The Earth takes the lifeless shell
Buried six feet in soil
He is still loyal

Before too long, he becomes the Earth
And sprouts something of great worth

A pink rose bud breaks through
Opens up with the man all good
As he opens his eyes,
The angel still on his mind
Takes a big yawn
And keeps walking on…
