Death Is Certain

Oh sweet sleep
Why did I wake up?
I feel like I should have known better
What’s the rush?

Oh sweet greed
You got me on my knees
Biting the nails of ambition
At the foot of thee

Oh sweet pain
Sweet consequence
Sweet failure
Death is certain
Life is not

Oh sweet fear
Keep my head on straight
Don’t let me get ahead of myself now
That’s way too late

Oh sweet loss
I got too much to lose
In the end there’ll be no winners
Just orphaned shoes

Oh sweet horror
Sweet emptiness
Sweet absurdity
Death is certain
Life is not

It’s the end of eternity
It’s an ocean lost at sea
It’s a reason to believe
Maybe, maybe…?

Oh sweet love
Come hold my hand
Take a walk through this sunset city
With a dying man

Oh sweet love
Oh sweet love
Oh sweet love

Death is certain
Life is not…..
