Elusive Lesson


Here today
Gone tomorrow
We put such stock in
What brings such sorrow

We obtain what we want
Then hold it so tight
And we’re all broken up
When it fades from our sight

We spend our whole lives
Fighting tooth and nail
To achieve all we want
And then watch it fail

Again and again
We’ll try and we’ll try
But still never learn
Till after we die
