It could be happy or sad or maybe a tragedy,
Tragic, unfair, painful and breathtaking,
A highway to ride alone,
That's life as it is, that's just it.
It may not be how we planned it,
It may not be perfect,
But nothing is perfect on this cruel land,
We are living a dream or a nightmare.
Life itself is unfair,
But for some it's never ending happiness and laughter,
Life frightens us in mysterious ways,
It's more than picking roses and smelling lilies,
It's more like disappointment and backstabbing,
That's life as it is.
A nightmare.
