From the cradle to the grave
One step closer each step we take
To avoid that banana peel
That one slip that could kill
In it's many many forms
Death starts watching
The day were born
In the wings silently there
Without a worry without a care
Listening watching to see
If it'll be hard
Or easy
Choices not all our own
Make the wait short
Or help it along
In our time here on earth
Choices made since our birth
How to add
How to subtract
Loose a few years for a cigarette
Add some back if you quit
Not as many as you did
Have before your loss
Bad habits cost
Eating away at time
Making smoking like a crime
Poisoning our bodys
Shortening our days
Taking us closer to the grave
To spread the distance
From the grave
Many better choices made
Take a walk with a child
Ride a bike for a while
Go for a swim join a gym
Make love go for a run
It's our body it's our mind
It's up to us
In our time
