Life
Such a curious thing
The ups and downs
The complete turn arounds
Never pausing for you
Never pausing for me
On and on it goes
Even for our foes

I've tried to stop time
Only for a minute
The minute passed
And so I lashed
Wanting to stay there forever
I've never really felt better
Only acting
While this darkness is hacking

I warn you dear
Never take a minute for granted
It's never coming back
You can whine and chase
Hold it with a leather lace
And before you know it
Life will be over
No more time at all

For you see
If you waste your life
Chasing that minute
They'll be no time to focus on the finish
