Life Is A Battlefield

The road is paved with knives
Everybody knows it, but you
Words are poisonous food to chew
Everybody knows it, but you

Swords grow in our sight
At our every move
Everybody knows it, but you
Kindness is always defeated
By the knights of the darkness
Everybody knows it, but you.

Snowflakes always get melted
In the evil sun
Rising in the spring downs
Everybody knows it, but you
Flower shoots always die
In the winter cold
Killed by the whistling frost
Everybody knows it, but you.

Wars always win over the innocent
Everybody knows it, but you
Hunger always wins over the poor
Everybody knows it, but you
Ends always shadow the beginnings
Everybody knows it, but you
Love is just another word for hate
Everybody knows it, but you
God is the belief of the weak
Everybody knows it, but you

Life is a battle
For one more day towards the cold grave,
And one more day is the only way we're winning
Everybody knows it, but you

Love is a just a circle of sugar and bitterness
The deceiving drive making us want more
Of the blood and the loss
Left behind on the one and only battlefield that life is
Everybody knows it, but you...  

Child you...
Beautiful you...
Distant you...
I'm losing you...
Begging a you
That was never here...

To Mr. C.G.
