Do you hear that music playing?
Is this really our last dance?
Why was I the one, who never got the chance?
Can we replay the playlist?
Or is this really my last song?
I should have known this would happen all along.
I just had to grow up so fast.
I let my life fly by.
I got caught up in the beat of music.
I never really tried.
Why didn’t someone tell me the day I was born,
That I was eventually going to die?
Maybe then I would have truly lived my life.
I took my life for granted and now I breathe in pain.
From what I realize now… I have done nothing in life to gain.
I let my possibilities go by,
and let my future out of line, and what’s this?
I am out of time.
Now, I am not asking you to just pause the music,
or even skip the song.
Just replay the playlist of my life, and give me another try.
