This pain inside your heart is just a part Of this art installation This life we start and soon depart We love and we lose We fall and we bruise We think that we choose But we’re locked in our views
Until we break free there is no way to see The trinity of you, me, and infinity The gorgeous galaxies inside the passing pleasantries The wonders of humanity Cloaked in plain banality The marvels of the mind Hard to find when so confined Meaning not divined When we are close to blind Regretful and resigned The contract that we signed must be refined Updated, redesigned To remind us of the soulful spark of the sublime Do not settle for subprime Set a goal and start your climb All you have is time So do not waste it, copy paste it Stop and taste it Savor the moment Step up and own it All you’ve ever known has blown away There’s nothing left to say There is no other way But to view this life as play
