About to fall


The universe is unkind The cruel judge of our lives and fates Theyre everywhere in our lives We cannot get past their gates We think that everything is fine All is good and all is calm Then the universe changes it's mind And everything just goes wrong Every aspect of a life Can be turned upside down From family to school Feeling like we might just drown Like a tree in the storm That tries to stand tall But even the strongest Sometimes can't help but fall Thank the universe for our changing fates The evil thing that hurts us all I'm trying to be tough But I'm about to fall
