Some say life is short,
I say life is too long to me.

It goes on for an eternity,
Never leaving me to a moments peace;
Never resting, forever testing,
Arrest of the soul.

Forevermore cast away,
To the depths of despair,
Eternal pain,
Stuck in a downward spiral,
Nevermore to see the light,
Could I ever see the daylight?
No, I was stuck looking at the moon,
Trying to navigate by the stars,
Learn from my scars,
You live a little, you learn a little.
