Life's short and sweet
All fortune is fleeting
It's hard to hold onto the feeling
And easy to tune out, turn up
And turn off our soft hearts
We all long for peace
But we're short on believing
It's hard to hold onto your dreaming
So easy to give up, get lost
And give away our power
All of the faces that we grow up to just die young
What does it say about our culture?
Still fighting over: "left," "right"
Disrespect the dead like some vultures...
Maybe get together in the next life
But what's ahead of us now
What's in the head lights?
Are we crashing into a deer?
Or can we swerve?
Tires up on the curb
It's all work, work
Yeah, we never take a break from the verbs
Just to be a minute
Try it, take a little time
Just to see a minute
Peacefully breathe deep
I can't say exactly where it's all gonna lead
But I believe we are more than we seem
Like when you wake from a dream
And barely can even say what it means
Broken, beautiful, or stuck in between?
It seems
Nothing is free, but the teamwork
What's a green dollar mean?
What's a Dream worth?
We were thinking that...
Life's short and sweet
All fortune is fleeting
It's hard to hold onto the feeling
And easy to tune out, turn up
And turn off our soft hearts
We all long for peace
But we're short on believing
It's hard to hold onto your dreaming
So easy to give up, get lost
And give away our power
So now this lady on the link wants food
We all say no cuz our money's on cards
The most convenient excuse...
Look away avoid the pain in our hearts
When it's rainy and dark
In the city of Cobain and Jimi
Find Nirvana with a stranger to start
Just to see it in the
Way we all take our place in the arc
Thinkin' how the first humans found flame from a spark
Made fire, cooked food, over light in the park
Hunt and gather for our livelihood
Now we barely know the people in our neighborhood
Are we living out our days
In the ways we should
But it's messier than that
If we end up on our backs in the dirt someday
We can finally relax
Life hurts, so we cry and we laugh at ourselves
As we try to react to the fact that...
Life's short and sweet
All fortune is fleeting
It's hard to hold onto the feeling
And easy to tune out, turn up
And turn off our soft hearts
We all long for peace
But we're short on believing
It's hard to hold onto your dreaming
So easy to give up, get lost
And give away our power
