Sunday, November 1

1 November

Time flies, yes it does.
When you want it to slow down it doesn't, what more when you want it to stop?
When you want it to quicken there's not enzyme for such a thing.

Yet time is fair, yes time is fair indeed.

It's been a while. Seems to be a long while, but short... All depends on perspective.
So fast, November already...

I remember writing this some time ago. Here's the original post: Expiry Date
Can it sound like a rock song? Hahaha....
Hope this really becomes a rock song one day!

Every object has a fixed amount of time
before it rots, after which there it goes
Every human too has a limited time
to live, to breathe, and to coexist
This is the blatant truth, a harsh reality:
Everybody needs to die, nothing is eternal
I know that the truth hurts, I don't like it either
But nothing lasts forever, everything expires

You don't know when's your deadline
The day you fade away
You don't know how much longer
Can you live to play and play
So stop dreaming like a child
Wake up and live your numbered days

Refrigerators, dry conditions
Salt and vinegar, reducing agents
Various methods to delay Expiration
But nothing lasts forever, everything expires

Time is running out, time is running out
Time is running out, everything expires
