Everything Dies

Thought that we would always stay together
 Bought the whole notion love lasts forever
 But in real life forever is a disaster
 There's no such thing as happy ever after...
 Cuz everything dies!
 Yes it's dark but that's the way we're heading
 Would you prefer a story with a different setting?
 Like a child, you might go on pretending
 Heaven is real and love is never ending
 But everything dies!
 Sometimes I'm still believing,
 Like no one here is leaving
 Sometimes I wish that glory
 Was more than just a story
 Sometimes I get a feeling,
 Wish for mercy and some healing
 And some warmth in mid-December,
 But the ice helps me remember
 That everything Dies!
 You might be on top with beauty and youth
 But give it some time your eyelids will droop
 The years will go by your puppies will die
 The pride of your life killed slowly by time.
