To Live is to Die

HumanSadness

 

I live 

To be perceived 

By strangers I don’t know

Every line I write is just an adage 

A proof of concept that I was here

That I lived

That I died

 

And who I am will be lost to time 

Every word I say will outlive me

 

To live is to die

Who im perceived as will outlive me

 

I could die a infinite times before they finally plant me

And I know they’d just replace me

 

I am a slowly dying animal writing out a story

 

To live is to die

Both everyone and no one has felt how I am

 

I live for tabloid headlines and women

Everything I say is a remix

 

Im sorry to tell you this but

If you play it backwards you’ll get nothing
