life is worth living

occasionally, i get smacked in the head with an inspiration for something. sometimes it's a song, sometimes it's a poem, sometimes it's a book...it varies. i really got smacked good earlier. this is a song titled life is worth living.

-enna

F: A darkness creeps into my mind
Smothering everything in its path
Life is no longer worth living
Where can I run?
M: Put that gun down
That’s not the answer
Look within your heart
And then you’ll see…

Everything that is good
Everything that is right
Everything that is worth living for
Is right underneath your nose
So look again at your life
Take a chance again tonight
And you will see why
Life is worth living

There is so much in your life
That you shouldn’t throw away
So much happiness and love
Why can’t you smile again?
F: Where is the happiness
Where is the love
I searched for a long time
And I still don’t see…

Anything that is good
Anything that is right
Anything that is worth living for
Nothing underneath my nose
I looked again at my life
I took a chance again tonight
And I still don’t see why
Life is worth living

M: Give me your hand
Let me show you
What I see
I see a soul with
Dignity and immortality
Precious to me…

(guitar solo)

F: I look into your eyes
I see your sincerity
And now I understand
What I could not see…

B: Everything that is good
Everything that is right
Everything that is worth living for
Is right underneath your/my nose
So look again at your life
Take a chance again tonight
And you will see
Everything that is good
Everything that is right
Everything that is worth living for
Is right underneath your/my nose
So look again at your life
Take a chance again tonight
And you will see why
Life is worth living

F: (softly, almost an echo) Life is worth living
