about

We're only a footstep away. It only takes one or, perhaps, two events to lead us down a path from which it's very difficult to find our way back. It's written almost like a plea by someone living on the street, homeless and disturbed.

lyrics

And it’s a life, and it’s impossible,
And it’s a lie, and that’s the truth.
And it’s a life, well that’s debatable,
But try to cry, and you’ll be mute.

It could be you.

And it’s a life, and it’s contemptible,
Don’t wonder why who is to blame,
And when you’re high and life is whimsical,
A silent cry might then exclaim,

It could be you.
And it’s a life, and it’s lamentable,
You have a voice, don’t turn away.
And as a life, it’s not immutable,
So it’s absurd to sit and pray.
I’d give my life for you,
I’d give my life, if I was true.
