Gilded
Life is full of mysteries,
you never know what’s happening to others.
It’s not always good, it’s not always bad.
Though, life holds secrets that will never be said.
She’s not always fine, she’s not always sad,
but the death of her child makes her feel cheated.
He’s not a loser, he’s not a winner,
but not affording food makes him feel defeated.
They don’t show you these things that I’ve seen.
They show you what’s gilded, and they show you a fantasy.
Life isn’t a fantasy, life isn’t a reality show.
Life is person, in which together, both of you will grow old.
