Transient Life

[Verse]
Life lasts a hundred years, but like a fleeting flower
In just a few short years, it changes like wine's power
Like soup on the stove for three days, the sky we cannot see
As we come of age, darkness engulfs you and me

[Verse 2]
At the cusp of adulthood, the sky turns bleak and unsure
In the age of understanding, everything changes, that's for sure
Half a lifetime spent searching for the beginning's trace
Caught in the cycle of life, trying to find our place
