WHAT WAS LIFE WORTH? ________________________________________________ What was a life worth? He didn't even value his own So he walked around on earth No heart, just skin and bone Sending souls to heaven Cause he had none of his own Whatever happened to him? On his road to being full grown He had a knife, he had a gun Said he didn't need anyone Waiting for conscience to arrive If he bothered to, he stayed alive People hated and feared him The man with no soul He didn't lose, he didn't win His eyes had simply grown too cold He said that living was a duty He said life was a game He stripped peace of its beauty Like it was a price he could claim No hope, no reason, no laughter Could bring him out of the dark No one knew what he was after Could not even love warm his heart? But who could love such a man Who each day killed and died alone Who was impossible to understand Whose reasons were never known © 2014 Johanna |
