WHAT IS LIFE?
IS IT A CHAIN OF EVENTS
WHICH WHEN ONE DAY ENDS
NEVER COMES BACK AGAIN?
IS LIFE ONLY A DREAM
DOES IT ONLY SEEM
TO BE WHAT IS ONLY AN ILLUTION?
IS LIFE A BED OF ROSES
WHICH SOMETIMES CAUSES
PAIN, DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF THORNS?
IS LIFE A GAME
OF LOSING AND REGAINING FAME,
OF BEARING WITH THE TIME, NOT TAME?
WHAT IS LIFE?
IS IT ONLY A QUESTION
THAT CAN NEVER BE ANSWERED;
CANNOT BE INFERRED
FROM THE CLUES, WE HAVE?
AND IS IT RIGHT
THAT LIFE IS SOMETIMES BRIGHT
BUT SOMETIMES AS DARK
AND SCARY AS AN ENDLESS NIGHT?
ALL I KNOW IS THAT
I HAVE FAILED
TO SOLVE THE PUZZLE OF LIFE.
PERHAPS THAT IS WHAT LIFE IS
A PUZZLE, TOO DIFFICULT FOR ME.
SO, I ASK FOR THE SOLLUTION-
WHAT IS LIFE??
IS IT A CHAIN OF EVENTS
WHICH WHEN ONE DAY ENDS
NEVER COMES BACK AGAIN?
IS LIFE ONLY A DREAM
DOES IT ONLY SEEM
TO BE WHAT IS ONLY AN ILLUTION?
IS LIFE A BED OF ROSES
WHICH SOMETIMES CAUSES
PAIN, DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF THORNS?
IS LIFE A GAME
OF LOSING AND REGAINING FAME,
OF BEARING WITH THE TIME, NOT TAME?
WHAT IS LIFE?
IS IT ONLY A QUESTION
THAT CAN NEVER BE ANSWERED;
CANNOT BE INFERRED
FROM THE CLUES, WE HAVE?
AND IS IT RIGHT
THAT LIFE IS SOMETIMES BRIGHT
BUT SOMETIMES AS DARK
AND SCARY AS AN ENDLESS NIGHT?
ALL I KNOW IS THAT
I HAVE FAILED
TO SOLVE THE PUZZLE OF LIFE.
PERHAPS THAT IS WHAT LIFE IS
A PUZZLE, TOO DIFFICULT FOR ME.
SO, I ASK FOR THE SOLLUTION-
WHAT IS LIFE??
