Mag Learns Life

Maybe if I wished it away, it would go

Wash up on the shore at my feet, lapping right over me

Ferris wheel rides go up, then back down

I watch it revolve like the Earth to the Sun

Still I wish you would ride it with me

Like how it once was

If every year we live again

If every day we wake up again

Will I ever chase it away?

Is it forever sneaking up behind me, all over again?

To live and learn, but then undo all the lessons that you’ve earned

Maybe if I wished it away, it would stay

Sitting beside me on the bench, the shore, the tree

Much like how the flower awaits the bees

Sticky like honey, like how it used to be

If every year we live again

If every day we wake up again

Will I ever chase it away?

Is it forever sneaking up behind me, all over again?

To live and learn, then undo the lessons you learned
