Life is made for living
Every moment a role is being fulfilled
Sometimes it's a parent, sometimes it's a child
Maybe a ruler maybe a wife
Lots of roles lots of times
Living, breathing human lives
No one knows when it will end
today, maybe tomorrow?
A mystery no one can solve
A gamble no one can win

Meanwhile the sinister silent watcher
cloaked in a shroud of darkness
eyes awake, never one to sleep
watches in amusement
at the hustle bustle of mankind
how quickly they would all come to a stop
their roles quickly forgotten
the only inevitable thing remaining
is death .... is me
