Sometimes the little cracks
Are simply burnt away
Sometimes they all add up
A scar to forever stay
Sometimes people’s candles
Are blown out way too soon
Sometimes you live a nice long life
Like the ever-present moon
And sometimes fame and glory
Come from all you’ve sown
Sometimes you only read about them
In the books you own
And sometimes when you’re feeling down
Somebody picks you up
Sometimes they simply walk on by
Leaving pennies in your cup.
Life is good. Life is bad
Life is happy. Life is sad
Life is weird. Life is gay
Life keeps going, everyday
You’ll be nice, and, alas,
Sometimes you will be the ass.
But does it matter? Does it really
‘Cuz after all the touchy-feely
Your life is just a candle
Adding to the light
Of a billion others
Oh, but what a sight
Alone, you see, it’s futile
The darkness will close in
But if we burn together
Then the light will win
