Short Lived

Smiles, a glint in your eyes.
and for a moment,
serenity.
look at you, overwhelmed with emotion.
with the happiness you found.
And it really doesn't matter,
how good you got it now.
and it really doesn't matter,
'cause later on you'll lose it all.
Falling down with tearful eyes,
there's nothing left that can pick you up.
our happiness is always so short lived.
Remenence, of how you used to be.
tatered emotions, engulfed with pity.
there was a time, when solitude seemed so far away.
now its yours, to stay.
And it really doesn't matter,
how good you got it now.
and it really doesn't matter,
'cause later on you'll lose it all.
Falling down with tearful eyes,
there's nothing left that can pick you up.
our happiness is always so short lived.
You rely on hope to get you through,
just wondering aimlessly from day to day.
why can't things just stay the same?
