On the Radio, Regina Spektor

THIS IS HOW IT WORKS:
You're young until you're not
you love until you don't,
you try until you can't.
You laugh until you cry,
you cry until you laugh
and everyone must breathe
until their dying breath.



No, this is how it works:
you peer inside yourself
you take the things you like
and try to love the things you took
and then you take that love you made
and stick it into some -
someone else's heart,

pumping someone else's blood.


And walking arm in arm,
you hope it don't get harmed,
but even if it does
you'll just do it all again.
