under these fancy clothes
there was a tired body
and a mind with no goals
plus a soul that was bloody
-
my troubled mind
went from bad to worse a fall
and had none to guide
but my dying soul
.......
live your life like
there is no tomorrow
just do what you like
and you'll never feel sorrow
.......
this advice I've taken
and haven't worked for me
the adviser was mistaken
'am worse than i used to be
........
if you want you to mean something,
and not to be forgotten
think always of helping
not of what you've gotten
........
consider life after death
then to heaven may pass
before He takes your breath
think of Hell and Eden's grass
