And it’s spring now, the world turns as it ever has

Does fate smile upon me? Or does she laugh?

Faced with the ghosts who have come to pass

Crushed by the weight, crushed by fate

I was living simply when life swept me away

Crying through lonely nights both empty and gray

Carried to the shore unpleasant with rain

I will have to face a fate awful or awesome

At times seeming impossible to blossom

In a evil world where I am honest with conscience

Will I fail? Will I fall?

Will I sail across the stars?

The desperate moment we die, only to open eyes upon Heaven

Hoping our flaws won’t rise with our ascension

 To breathe that all in…

In death few things matter

But being very much alive now

And only concerned with survival

Hard to have a sense of humor while attending funerals

While laughing at fate, appeasing the gods

I will pay, yet never quit my cause

Uncontrollable events, relax that’s life’s nature

We go through tough times but remember we’ll laugh later

Will I fail? Will I fall?

Will I sail across the stars?

I will laugh telling tales of how it was hard

Now I sit and laugh, telling tales of the past

Seemed endless, but they were over fast

The cure for sorrow, sorrow over passed

And before I know it I am old at last

If fate doesn’t consume you, time will

No one lives forever, but stories seem to hold time still

On the table of life I have eaten my fill

And pass more on than was given to me, in my will

Will I fail? Will I fall?

Will I sail across the stars?

I will laugh telling tales of how it was hard

Laughing at fate
