One day I am going to die
I’ll be here one moment and gone the next
You’ll be surrounded by my memories
Maybe I’ll be able to come visit
Maybe I’ll be stuck in the inbetween
Not able to live in the world of the living
Not able to live in the world of the dead
It makes me feel uncomfortable
One day I am going to die
It’s not just a thought,
It’s a fact.
Why do I choose to live when I’m going to die one day
It feels like life is pointless
but it’s not.
I live to wake up beside him in the morning
I live to smell spring
I live for all the people who couldn’t
For all the memories that are to be made
Everyday is the best day
Because present is all you have
The past is behind you
The future is ahead of you
And one day you’re going to die.
