I'm nothing more than a fly on Life's expansive wall The news spread to swat me swiftly through the air And as I'm gliding aimlessly with my effortless fall I wonder how it used to feel, back when I use to care
My withered wings, Oh the places They have soared Lascivious flings, Oh the territories I have explored Jewels and things, all just pointless awards adored Like retired Kings, I've grown tired, old, and bored Yet my soul clings, for anything I may have ignored and then it sings, a melody that leaves you floored
Recklessly I must abandon thee, this identity bestowed upon me
Although I have a penchant for living knowing it will end is so unforgiving
Part of a species that could never be stranger That Recklessly we shall eventually endanger
So please let these words do their job and nourish Your mind, body and soul are now free to flourish
