365,
For every day of my miserable life
I'll always try to live for something
To make up for mistakes I've made
For 365 after
I shall lie on it as it is laid
365,
For every day of my reclusive life
I shall live and not survive
For in oceans endless and deep I take a dive
Though no one swims dearly by my side
365, every day I'll beat the tide
365,
For every day of this disreputable life
That I have lived the irresistible lie
To try and deny the undisputable truth
I am but a puff of smoke that leaves no sooth
365, I shall go back and find my root
365,
For every day of this ephemeral life
And as I stare in the crystal mirror of life
And face a fast fading façade
I am no longer that unclad lad
So for 365, I shall live better than I've ever had
365,
For every day of this unending life
After this passes another will come
Like a droplet hanging off a leaf
After it another will form
For 365; I am that leaf
365,
For every day of this gracious life
I shall finish the race and hope to see the master
Where my sin gathers and grace abound
For I come from dirt and to death am bound
365, getting closer, I'll be better this time around
