This Is Life

This is Life

In the depths of darkness, where shadows dwell
I gave my all, but you gave me hell
A one-sided dance, a cruel charade
Where love was given, but never repaid

I watched the stars fade in your eyes
As you took my love and fed me lies
I questioned why, blamed myself in vain
For loving too much, enduring the pain

This is life, with its twists and turns
A rollercoaster of flames and burns
With a heart of gold, the burden's heavy
When love's a gamble, and luck's not ready

I poured my soul into your hands
But you let it slip like grains of sand
Each sacrifice, a silent plea
Lost in the echo of your apathy

I searched for answers in the night
Why the one who loves must suffer, fight
But the truth reveals in harsh light
The choices we make, wrong or right

This is life, with its highs and lows
Where kindness blooms, but seldom grows
In a world of takers, the givers fall
But in the ashes, we rise, stand tall

Through the tears and shattered dreams
We learn to mend our broken seams
To not make love our only guide
But find the balance, walk with pride

For this is life; the lessons are hard and cruel
But in the pain, we find the fuel
To make the choices, brave and wise
And break free from the endless lies

The endless lies
Oh-oh-oh... and break free from the endless lies

For this is life, ah-ah-ah
This is life; a journey profound
Where the lost are found, and hearts rebound
So, let us rise, and take our stand
For in the end, we'll understand
