What is This?

What is it? It's life.
What is this?
This nonsense or war,
In our heads to complete.
That has us blood lusting gore
Until the inevitable defeat.

What is this?
Is it a song in a canary cage,
Just wanting to break out?
When can you leave that devastating stage
Of lies of hopes and dreams.

What is this?
It is life, for good or better,
For bad or worse.
To sign it goodbye in a letter,
You won't be forever.
