I asked for something nice
Life gave me a packet of thorns
They pricked my finger
Bringing out bloodI asked life for some flowers
I was given dry leaves from a dead tree
A bouquet was later given
To someone but not meI just wanted to be happy
Why is life so unfair
It takes more than it gives
Now I'm left in despairShe asked for a slice of bread
Life gave her the entire bakery
She asked for just a friend
Life gave her a loyal armyIs hapiness too much to ask for
Because I can't seem to understand
Why is life so unfair
What will life offer in the end
