this is how it works, you're young until you're not,
you love until you don't, you try until you can't,
you laugh until you cry, you cry until you laugh,
and everyone must breathe until their dying breath
this is how it works, you peer inside yourself,
you take the things you like
and try to love the things you took,
and then you take that love you made
and stick it into someone else's heart,
pumping someone else's blood
and walking arm in arm, you hope it don't get harmed
but even if it does, you'll just do it all again
