Let’s lie.
About the fact we are dying
Closing in on our ending
Can we try out what people call happiness
and move along with that sweet dream?
Forget about the crumbling world
suffusing us with the stinging pain of worry.
We should dance to the music
of the wind chimes
that cry out to the moon
I’m going to love to my last extent of breath
and disperse my worries
with that smile of yours
So be happy with me for a little longer.
Let’s lie.
Isn't life a bittersweet tragedy?
