Birth is a suicide mission

Time is a cosmic loop

We try to deny reality

We return to where we\'ve been

But can\'t admit our mortality

I never got to know you

You were gone before I knew

Time shows no mercy

And at the speed of light flew

 

We had days of glory

Now turned to rust

Dreams of gold

Now only dust

Fulfillment complete

Full of lust

Emaciation replete

Lack of trust

 

Each day we are born

Every day is our death

Blinded to this

We take our first and last breath

To be born again

We return to the sands of time

Our children born to die

Isn\'t it sublime

 

To take someone\'s time

Is to take all they\'ve got

You can\'t pay them back

An option it\'s not

No one will leave alive

Regrets are cast in stone

We only come this way once

We all leave alone
