Life is the sound of a warbler shrill
Life is the sharp pain from an icy chill
Life is the heartbeat of our favourite song
Life is Allie Sherlock busking all day long.
Life is a rosebud
Life is a lie.
Life is the last breath before we die
Life is the sound of a newborn's cry
Life is fragments leftover once we assemble all its bits
Life is those tiresome chores that give us the shits.
Life is a rosebud
Life is a lie.
Life is us gasping as we learn how to swim
Life is mandates that come at a whim
Life is guided by that voice in our heads
Life is crushed by those who confine us to bed.
Life is a rosebud
Life is a lie.
