How, by definition

Does it feel to be alive

Is it something that we do

Or is it that for which we strive?

I've heard it said, 'Live Your Life'

For you only get the one

Elucidate my friend

Come and show me how it's done

Some may do it slowly

Others at a pace

You can live a life that's lowly

Or with a smile upon your face

Some will reach for good

While others turn to bad

Don't live it, then regret

The chance you never had

It seems there's no real answer

It's not for me to tell

Some will find their paradise

For some it's a living hell

You can try flying solo

Or take a partner and become 'us'

I try to live mine gently

With a minimum of fuss

Take the beast by the horns

And live it as you will

One thing's for sure, it is no more

Than a roller coaster thrill

There is no proper answer

That's all there is to say

Just be the best that you can be

And live your life that way

It's a heady mixture

There'll be pleasure, there'll be strife

But who can really say

Exactly how to live a life...
