Life


Life may pass you by 

Like Ferris said on his day off 

You must learn to fly

But may also have to eat from the trough 

See in life there are ups and downs 

And we go through it all 

Much like our thoughts drown 

In our tears while we bawl 

What we don't see is the beauty in this 

The times we're upset we must turn into bliss 

For life is like a box of chocolates 

At least that's what Forest's mamma said

No life is like Russian Roulette

You get one shot and either you're living or dead

Because life is the biggest game you'll ever play 

So every time you awaken thank God that he gave you a new day
