Story Behind The Song
Contemplating life and feeling like we are all disposable in one way or another I wrote this song.
Song Description
WE are all a grain of sand or a breath in time but we don't realize it because the more we accomplish or attain we feel it makes us immune to the mortality of the universe....but of course we are all wrong, we should all just do the best we can because it's all so...temporary.

Lyrics
Life seemed fine 'till I realized
I was just but a breath in time
I write this song to sum my life
and hope it's rhymed
with what I've done and where I've been
Throughout this fight
I've argued views 'till they burned my heart
and while I searched for the truth inside
I played the game and finally learned
my wrong from rights
and still I'm faced with certain doubts
and wonder why
We are disposable soldiers, dying, dying
just to be recognized
Love is life's sweetest deception
It may be a way to survive
Survive life...survive this life
There's no star that may guide my ride
Time decides where my destiny lies
No last reprieves or royal crowns
that own the light
I cast my fate within this space
which life provides
We are disposable soldiers, dying, dying
just to be recognized
Still searching for storybook endings
with hopes that the hero survives
Survives life...survives this life
Survive, survive, survive this life
