Life is so easy we just cannot comprehend,
So we try too hard to understand.
That we’ve wasted lives by the time we cannot stand,
And everybody’s empty at the end.
Everybody’s looking for a familiar place,
With a bed, so they can lay their head.
And everyone’s going to the funeral today,
Hoping that it’s a wedding day instead.
Life is so easy we just make it hard,
That’s why it always seems to last so long.
But by the end of it we always yearn for more,
Because we know what life has in store(?).
Children have always had it right,
They spend less time making peace so they can fight.
Why is it that when day turns to night,
Kids are always acting like it’s still light?
Dying’s just a short-sighted solution,
To a problem that doesn’t need to be resolved.
Transcendence is found in the aftermath,
Of a life of apathy without resolve.
Everybody’s got a broken heart sometimes,
That words and thoughts just cannot repair,
And everybody knows the place they cannot go,
So they read the signs, try to learn, and beware.
When she left I read books on everything,
And they just depressed me even more.
I found myself trying to connect everything,
But I lost her caress and found a chore.
A library is no place for a man,
As I find myself following my own plan.
A library is just a cemetary for trees,
A woman is just a man on his knees.
I find myself loving beauty more than brains,
Cause a pretty face doesn’t ever last.
Everyone can learn something anytime,
But grace is always lost to the past.
Dying’s just a short-sighted solution,
To a problem that doesn’t need to be resolved.
