Life Matters...or does it?

Trying to explain that blank feeling
Trying to keep back the tears
Or turn them into laughs
What a waste of time
They say
But what if you cry
What if you don't get everything done
Cuz you're too angry
They say you're not decent
Or whatever
Does that really matter?

Looking in the mirror
Seeing that face
Is that really me?
Did I do that
Did it really happen that way?
And realizing that the whole world's now against you
What just happened to your life
So overwhelming
But then you think
Whatever
Does that really matter?

Standing in the spotlight with your lines forgotten
Everyone staring at you
You have to admit
Life feels like you're the big picture
In a bad way only
You're shaken with embarrassment
AHHH!!!
And you suddenly think
Whatever
Does that really matter?

What matters?
Does life matter?
Should we worry about doing the wrong thing in such a short time
When we're all gonna die anyway?
