Like a dropp of rain in the wind,
Like a fish in the ocean,
Like a spark in the darkness,
A clock ticks without motion.
Like a diamond in mountains,
Like a tree in the forest,
Like a cloud in the sky,
The choir sings without chorus.
Like a shard of glass from a window,
Like a torn page from a book,
Like a burnt home in a field,
A life worth one more look.
Like red candlewax melted,
Like flame turned to ice,
Like pond ripples at midnight,
The devil grins twice.
Like a diamond buried,
Like an hourglass shifted,
Like a mirrors reflection,
A perspective twisted.
Like a star in the universe,
Like a planet in space,
Like a crater on the moon,
Life is a race,
is a race,
is a race.
And some leave too soon.
