This is Life

This is Life

I began with a song

And now I have nothing

This is life

I once was a child

And I was beautiful

This is life

Where I am now

And where I will end

This is life

If you’ve ever loved someone

And lost them

This is life

If you ever thought the world was perfect

And now you don’t

This is life

If you have any scars

To prove you were here

This is life

If you believe there is more

Or there is nothing

This is life

I am your friend

And that is something

This is life
