life it is given easily and it can be taken easily


All the motions inside me
It should all be let free

Worried about the day ahead
How did I make my bed

Did I make it on the image that is not true to me
Did I make it by the things everyone wanted to see

No, no that isn't the way
However I made it
Now I must lay

One thing about making a bed is
You can always redo the mistake
While this is life
Those mistakes, you’ll have to partake

So don’t tell me how to live
For with or without you
For the best I strive

So next time you want to offer your advice
Keep it to yourself and remember this
You made your mistake, just don’t do it twice

And just to let you know
I put my heart to the test
And it worked out for the best

The author's comments:
The thing that inspired is, well i was in bit of a situation and people offered their advice. However, I took everyone's advice and followed, but it only made the situation more intensed. So these piece is basically about not listening to other people's advice and following your heart.
