Life Expectancy

I've seen my life
I've seen my wife
Tell me how I can go on living
Knowing how I am going to die

I know my life
I know my wife
Tell me what's the fun of living
Knowing nothing is ever a surprise

I met my wife
I've lived our life
Tell me why it's worth living
Knowing it's already happened in my mind

I know there's a heaven
I've already seen hell
I met the devil
Lord knows I mean well

I've heard so much
Have I heard it all
Can you learn too much
Can you ever know it all

I know there is more to this
I know I can get it done
I know I have things to finish
I know just living is all the fun







I'm not really feeling this one. It seems so negative. Almost like, why keep living if you've already seen it all?
