Warm bodies cuddle together on a cold night
Warm bodies try to brave the heat
Of the sun shining down on them.
Warm bodies work hard to make a living
To be inspired, to create something new.
Everyday they get up and walk up the hill
And fall on their knees to see what life has for
Them on the other side.
These warm bodies are called human beings and
They have so many names.
They grow up trying to be more than someone would
Say they could be, for they wanted to be better, stronger, wiser.
Only to end up in place a little better than before they went
Off and dreamed about the life that seemed so possible if
They just believed in more than what they can see.
These warm bodies enjoy many things and they really just want
The things in life that are meaningful, and a place to call home.
