Life Is Not a Game

Don your armor, steel and might,Stand defiant in the fightPlay your part, be bold, be brave,Brighter than the stars you crave

You die and live a thousand ways,Lost for days and endless daysYou lead your tactics, firm and true,A sea of pride is deep in you

But you simply forgot,This life is not a game you've boughtYou don't have a hundred tries,You only have one life that fliesAnd who is doomed to fallWill heed the final callOne swing will end it all,One chance before the fall

There is no right to try again,No second life, no 'what if then'You can't repeat it, can't rewind,Leave your troubles all behind

Reality is cold and grim,No margin for an error's whimFor someone's sword might take its tollAnd quench your heavenly, shining soul
