Life and Death

Since the big bang it’s always been this way
Life ticking downward till your last day

Why does it have to last forever everyone will say
It can happen anytime of the year even in beautiful May

All of us slowly cooking on a rocky tray
All destined to die like the people at pompeii

You can dance and play,
But everyone has to pay

From the glamorous bay
To a place far, far away

Your life will always sway,
But when you go I hope you can say hey
I’m pretty happy it turned out this way.
