Ode to Ravi

how short is a moment?
how long does it last?
if something big happens
it happens so fast
theres nothing you can do
no mulligan to take
its a quick as a train
without any brakes
so you go for a walk
and you dont really see
that high speed train
thats as bright as can be
but you cant really hear it
your musics too loud
you should've listened to dad
to turn that crap down
well now you've learned
from all your mistakes
but now your legless
it's a little too late
so remember that life
lasts only a moment
so much can happen
so try not to blow it
