You live until you die, you laugh until you cry,
You do until you don’t, you will until you won’t,
You’ll know where you've gone, but you’ll never know where you’re from,
You always have done, but you’re never actually done,
You’re only unlucky to loose, what you were lucky to have won,
Never forget how to laugh, because then you won’t remember humour,
Don’t worry about being lonely, when most friends are just a rumour,
You only really see this day, when you look back the next day,
So don’t waste tomorrow, wishing you could have changed today,
Look back in regret at something's done and what sometimes you've been,
Rather than what you could, should, would and might have been,
Realize life’s just a ride that people can’t see, so they don’t believe,
Learn not to trust your eyes, for what you see can often deceive.
You came out screaming and naked, this is all they want you to know
You were thrown to a world of come as you are, but pay as you go,
From the start we are cared for by orders, it's explained what we have to do,
We are guided for sure survival, or at least that’s what they tell you,
But from the time they had taught us to walk, we were told to pack it in,
From the day we were able to talk, we've been told we should just listen,
So go with what you know, not with what you are told from pre school,
Understand there is no truth only human opinion this is the only rule,
It’s only through the imagination of themselves, people are what we see,
Cloned Individuals, through their consumption of magazines and T.V.
Slowly they drip us with fear and we don’t admit it but we run and hide,
Life's a little less than a feel good high, It’s just a little less than a suicide,
You see I admit. I've spent time not knowing what is, or not illusion,
I was riddled with myself and riddled with all of this confusion,
But as my years past, I learnt to think different than the normal guy,
I looked back through my time and how this lie had made me cry,
So I asked who says that experience, was and is always right,
So I asked is it wisdoms clear vision, or just a fools ageing sight,
Why is it that those that say you have won, have never really lost,
And those that set the price, have never yet paid the cost,
They tell us society is a shining star, obey our rules you know it’s right,
But I thought a shining star, is nothing more than a fading old light,
I understand that those that don't try, usually end up with it all,
And that those that don't climb, never seem to fall,
But like a man doing a man, society really confuses me,
Who’s keeper. Who’s captive and Who’ s really free?
