Some people Go through their entire lives Not living Breathing, yes Surviving, yes But not living Not ever knowing the joys and sorrows Of first loves Not ever understanding the tragedy that comes From a broken heart Or the inexplicable amount of euphoria That comes from listening to music But not just listening to it Feeling it course through their body Like the blood in their veins Some people Go through their entire lives Without feeling And that Is the tragedy of surviving

The Great Human Paradox
Some people Go through their entire lives Not living Breathing, yes Surviving, yes But not living Not ever knowing the joys and sorrows Of first loves Not ever understanding the tragedy that comes From a broken heart Or the inexplicable amount of euphoria That comes from listening to music But not just listening to it Feeling it course through their body Like the blood in their veins Some people Go through their entire lives Without feeling And that Is the tragedy of surviving
