Trick of life

By Maria

This numbness, this vulnerability makes me feel alive

And then you know, whatever happens you ought to survive

You walk on the footpath blinded by the luminous rays

You count on people, which haunts you in a thousand ways

You realised now, the more you grow the more you know,

These angelic faces are just for show

The burning flames of pain pours out the richest scarlet blues

The more you give your best, the more you're gonna lose

No matter how still the night gets, the morning always seems breezier

And darling, when you stop expecting ease from life, life becomes easier
