So many people are living lives that they're not in love with, && I've just never quite understood that. How much exactly did it cost to sell your soul? At what point did you decide, "this is now my life until I'm old" The truth is we're all invincible, until the day we're not We've got to live our lives to the fullest, for it's only one that we've got To go about our days, meandering in the mundane Is surefire the best way, to drive ourselves insane We're meant to be free thinkers; artists, writers, && musicians Making the world a better place should be our only aim && mission Be kind to one another We're all in this together It's funny how the things that divide us Are also the same ones that tether Us to this forsaken planet Feeling like we're broken When at any given moment Kind words can be spoken Falling from our lips && lifting others' hearts We all have the capacity to make a difference It's just a matter of choosing to start

Invincibility
So many people are living lives that they're not in love with, && I've just never quite understood that. How much exactly did it cost to sell your soul? At what point did you decide, "this is now my life until I'm old" The truth is we're all invincible, until the day we're not We've got to live our lives to the fullest, for it's only one that we've got To go about our days, meandering in the mundane Is surefire the best way, to drive ourselves insane We're meant to be free thinkers; artists, writers, && musicians Making the world a better place should be our only aim && mission Be kind to one another We're all in this together It's funny how the things that divide us Are also the same ones that tether Us to this forsaken planet Feeling like we're broken When at any given moment Kind words can be spoken Falling from our lips && lifting others' hearts We all have the capacity to make a difference It's just a matter of choosing to start
Today a friend of mine said to me "We are all invincible, 'til we die." This poem was inspired by that statement.
