Here you go,
There you are,
You have a line, you think,
You have a life, you think,
You're in a nice house,
You're in a nice room,
You're in a nice bed
And you're dead.
You've known for years
You've seen things
You've felt things
You've wanted things
You've never cared for
You've never bled for
You've never thought towards.
And You're dead.
You've loved it,
A life so easy to live,
A life so simple to lead,
A life you can fly by on the foot of a bed.
That isn't true.
You're dead.
You're dead.
You've never cared
'Cause You've never known
You've never fled
'Cause You've never known
You're dead.
This is a life...

Interesting choice for this option. And a society piece. I personally love society pieces (I held a society contest a little whiles back that was a little more successful than I would have preferred.
) The repetition works nicely!
Thanks for entering our contest, and best of luck!
