Life itself can be so benign
A sad face is no crown jewel
For it has no sparkle and shine
Again it's just so benign
A misspoken word
Can never resign
Like the sun high in the sky
It may fade but never go away
We waste so much time
In search of all things divine
Worship the good
Even build a shrine
We live for today
But much to our dismay
We fondly look only to yesterday

Just like a rhyme out of time
Life itself can be so benign
A sad face is no crown jewel
For it has no sparkle and shine
Again it's just so benign
A misspoken word
Can never resign
Like the sun high in the sky
It may fade but never go away
We waste so much time
In search of all things divine
Worship the good
Even build a shrine
We live for today
But much to our dismay
We fondly look only to yesterday
Oh how benign
