Life Finds a Way

Life Finds a Way

Life is tenacious, it’s true,
and all shades from yellow to blue,
we talk all the time of variation,
so much that it’s mere imitation.

We study all things that life has
from lullabies to modern jazz,
but the thing that gets us past the hill -
we’re ever so hard to just kill.
