If freckles were lovely, and day was night,
And measles were nice and a lie warn’t a lie,
Life would be delight,—
But things couldn’t go right
For in such a sad plight
I wouldn’t be I.

If earth was heaven and now was hence,
And past was present, and false was true,
There might be some sense
But I’d be in suspense
For on such a pretense
You wouldn’t be you.

If fear was plucky, and globes were square,
And dirt was cleanly and tears were glee
Things would seem fair,—
Yet they’d all despair,
For if here was there
We wouldn’t be we.

Forever is a long time, darling,
It is not the cold air of winter chill
Which the sun will **** and thus born spring.
It is not the stars that light the night
Which, in fact, merely reflects the sun.
For as I said, forever is a long time, mate.

When you said you'll love me forever,
Did you realize forever is a long time?
You pledged your love to me, your girl
And you promised we'll be like poems that rhyme.

When you said you'll protect me forever,
Until death do as part and still you will
Watch over me from Heaven,
Did you realize what you've promised isn't real?

Because, honey, forever isn't like what you think,
The sun will not shine forever,
The trees will not grow forever,
The moon will not be moon forever,
And the earth and its people is not ceased to exist forever.
For it is told the time will come,
When we all be mere memories,
And the new world will do us harm,
And all of us will be just stories.

Forever is a long time, boy,
Don't you make promises with your toy.

you'll never know
what the light is like
if you hide in the dark
if you lurk in the shadows
if you wait for the right time
because the world keeps rotating
and time will keep on running
and no one will stop for you

you'll never know
what the world is like
if you stay inside your shell
not having courage to come out
and it will be your label
which you will take into your grave
a coward who hides behind comfort
who dares not take a risk

you'll never know
what you are capable of
if you don't open your eyes
and listen to the chirping birds
with your eyes shut and ears plugged
all you see and all you hear
is the nasty, disgusting voice
of the devil and his failures

you'll never know
about the world
and how to live
if you never try
and once you run out of time
regret will eat you alive
leaving you not even bones
like birds pecking through your flesh

and then at your last moments
then you'll realize
how pitiful your life was
not looking anything
oh, how blind had you been!
not listening anything
oh, how deaf had you been!
not doing anything
not trying anything
not living your life
oh, how dumb had you been!
if only...
you'll wish
if only had you been a little brave
and step out from the dark
oh, how little had you known

you'll never know
if regret would be your last emotion
if you don't take this chance
and soar beneath the shadows
you'll never know
