This is your life and it's ending one minute at a time (Tyler Durden - Fight Club)

Rebuild, rehash, rebuild

All so different, so fresh

What we did was regurgitate

So boring, so common

But the storm raged on

We started, could we have stopped

Reminiscence, memories

Reminding us of the good times

Close your eyes

Heart, it beats, it sighs

Time doesn’t come back

It just rolls by

Lie down, curl your legs up

Open your hair, rest your back

Rest your mind, put off the sack

What is that sound

Is it the soul creaking?

It is all so confusing

Or is it just too simple

Too many thoughts

So much to say, so much time

So little breath, so less words

Use your eyes, try and mime

Green and blue, could we see

Running after each other

Spent the time

Now it’s gone by

Drop a stone, drop a feather

Taken the skin, and now its leather

Teetering on the brink

Imbalanced on desire

Running wild in the desert

You ran out of water

And your heart is still on fire

What are we trying to prove?

What are you trying to say

The sun goes down

It does it every other day

Don’t know what to do

So much hype, so much ado

Wave your arms about

Tear your lungs, scream aloud

Fill your page of life

A bit of luck, bit of strife

Has happened before

Will happen again

This life some adore

Others just bear the pain

I know my friend

I know it well

Sometimes its long

Those times are hell

Writhing, trembling

Looking for words

Changing sides, flipping

Can’t find your place

Stars shinning, high up in space

They move, they burn

You burn with them

You try your luck

You try alone, you try it with them

This unending fling

A stone tied and thrown

Fell in the stream

Started from aggression

Resulting a splash, breaking your dream

Your throat is parched

Lips are sealed

You killed your enemy

Now you can do nothing, just pass the bead

The thread is the road

A darkened highway

The bead you passed

Turned with time

Ever so quickly, and yet so sublime

Often time just passes

Often you pass the time

Looking for lies in what he says

You missed the truth he spoke

The angel has spoken

He said his part

He paid his token

You have been living like everyone

Rebuilding was just a plan

Adaptation the key you lost

And you took to adopting

Following and not leading

Follow your heart

That is your right

Use your mind, live your dreams

Those who follow you, its their right

Don’t regurgitate, don’t copy

Be elegant, be original, not sloppy

Life is short, but it can be long

It depends if you live all the while

Or wait to die all along.
