Beautiful Life

Eyes drifting peacefully in a cargo van
Sitting alone next to my main man
Living off the energy of those close by
Watching living colors travel in the sky
In sync with those who really care
Shaving heads so that they're bare
Voting for who will lead class of '08
Waiting in line for the next freight
Seeing the tears of a lonely man
Making fun of the people I'm no better than
Giving your kids a good night kiss
Those people in your life you'll always miss
Living the dream, or so you thought
Look at the good when your heart is distraught
Feel the hearts of those around
Feel the earthquake shatter the ground
Smell the roses day after day
Smell the same roses rotting away
Taste the sweetness of charm
Taste the bitterness of the swarm
See the girl with the breeze in her hair
See the boy fall from his chair
The good, the bad, there will always be
And all of them happen to you and me
Events and Emotions make our life's worth
Giving new reason to another one's birth
Let the new live to see the day
Give life a chance to make it's way
The beauty of it all
Can break down your wall
One of life's most precious gifts
Is when your love makes that life live.
