Life or death, Heaven or Hell.
Hopes that sink in a wishing well.
The sun that falls, the moon that rises.
A whole world that is full of surprises.

Do we sleep? Do we dream?
As this heedless reality tears at the seam.
When we wake is it real?
The frightful world I see and feel.

Pain and hurt that stab at your side.
Love and hate, things we try to hide.
Are these words that are spoken true?
Or just a continuous lie that spills from you.

Here we fall down to our knees in defeat,
Circling in grave mistakes that we continue to repeat.
We feel entitled to the comforts we have every day.
Obliviousness allows us to see no other way.

Care for the people you love and hold dear.
Laugh for those who need the cheer.
Cry for those you have lost too soon.
Think of their quiet journey to the moon.
