We as humans are so fragile
We can die at anytime
Or anyplace we go
We go
Or we can sit and grow old
Then it takes a while
Before we greet the reaper
The Reaper
We only have one life to live
So dont go and waste it
And cherish the people you love
Love
Cos one day we will disappear
So suddenly
Before we get to say goodbye
Goodbye
From the instant from our birth mortality cast its ever present shadow upon us setting a course of a journey through the world
And as we grow and evolve our awareness of mortality deepens evolving from a distant abstraction to an intimate companion that colours our choices, dreams and fears
This awareness is a double-edged sword granting us the exquisite ability to cherish fleeting moment while Burdening us with the weight of inevitable farewells
