Live On

Location

Times will be harsh, but don't give up,

You have to fight, even when you've said, "enough",

Luck is not real. And times will be rough

Even when you know what you're doing,

Things will go wrong, that is why you have to be strong.

 

When times are bleak, when times are grey,

You cannot see and lose your way,

Still, live on. For things may change,

However hard to arrange.

 

The earth spins on, no matter what you do,

Every second is more precious,

The fleeting moments pass by fast,

Learn to harness them, and make them last,

Do not deny what is true, nor sit around and rue.

 

When times are bleak, when times are grey,

You cannot see and lose your way,

Still, live on. For things may change,

However, it can be hard to rearrange.

 

Nothing is easy. Everything has a price,

It all depends whether you are willing to sacrifice,

Will you risk it all? Or hold your piece?

Whatever you do, do not cease.

 

When times are bleak, when times are grey,

You cannot see and lose your way,

Wander the path, and find the light,

What you want will now shine bright.

 

Idle hands cannot move you forth,

Choose your fate, east, west, south, or north?

Live on, for things will change,

No matter how hard to arrange.
