The Reality of Life
A house full of truth and lies,
People with great mind calls it 'life',
Waking up through bed to going back to it again, You will die tomorrow, no one knows this pain.
Some work for money day and night,
The twilight throws them far apart,
They think about money all the time,
Without even thinking what they like.
Some work for love and get betrayed,
The most beautiful feeling makes you behave like a stray,
They cry, they laugh,
The next moment, they were fooled half.
Some work for their dream,
Still don't get what they mean,
The situation makes them hate themselves,
They live their life worst as hell.
This life is so precious and high,
But sometimes it makes people harder to cry,
The most beautiful and painful things you get from life,
Is that the one, 'you just learn and die'.
