Life releases no one
there's no escape
the die is cast
you've to move on
as long as you last-

in its unforgiving whirlpool
struggle and swim your must
no one is around to rescue
only in your self you must trust-

night sets in--there's no light
in the sky---- hope you must grasp
an hour seems like a lifetime
how slowly does it pass-

to be born is to  endlessly struggle
too many aspirations are crushed
not an encouraging does life utter
even when all your dreams have turned to dust
