Advice For Those Living
Life is a terrible and complex mystery
Relived and retried throughout all of history.
And so to help with the sorrows and struggles life's giving,
Here’s some friendly advice
For those who are living.
Be kind to the world; that’s a good start.
Lord knows that it’s constantly falling apart.
But remember to let that kindness extend
From your mouth to your head to your own heart again.
You are a valuable and precious being
Even though that’s not always how it may seem.
Remember that love is a powerful thing
That can connect and unite all living beings.
But to love and to be loved you mustn't forget
That love must be
Calling you
Waiting here. Like I always do.
You wooed me so well, and I was ensnared.
I hardly expect you to even be there.
I promised myself that I was done with this.
Wasting my life on the promise of bliss.
But you were so nice. So different. So smart...
You clouded my head and ran away with my heart.
Ring, ring, ring...
I ...
I know you won't answer
I know this is doomed.
Ring, ring, ring...
But I'm betting it all
For a minute with you.
Ring, ring, ring...
Ring, ring, ring...
It's killing my senses
But I've had enough.
Ring...
Maybe it's time to just -
Ring...
...
Hang up.
