I take a minute
to pause and think
my life rushes on
even though I can wait
surrounding me are people
who are happy life goes on
maybe it's because
they have the lucky ones
all my lifes been good
but somehow I wonder
if it could have been better
if I wasn't a quitter
or lazy and stop being bitter
my life too could be lucky
then I could join the living
and not be left out over and over again
