Colors of Life


While in the dark,
to light the way;
you need a spark,
listen to what I say;

It's only you and me,
on a twisted path;
can't you see,
we feel his wrath;

Seek knowledge in life,
ignorance may be bliss;
all else is strife,
but think of what you'll miss;

Sadness and fear,
laughter and joy;
cry a single tear,
whether girl or boy;

These are the colors for what it's worth,
you only live once and then you die;
you only grow after birth,
for you friends will cry;

But these are the colors of life,
it makes it worth the pain;
survive the suffrage and strife,
standing naked in the rain;

Open your soul,
Open your heart;
life your life,
play your part.
