WHAT IS LIFE WORTH?
WHAT IS LIFE WORTH?


What’s life worth when there abounds
So much pain in the world?
Yet for those who suffer so,
No one has a kind word.

This world is a graveyard of
The sick and sulking souls,
In which the deeds of Satan
Have dug up hellish holes.

Brotherhood of man is gone,
Selfishness is the rule.
He who serves a noble cause
Is considered a fool.

More than life, serenity
Is really in death.
Rather than enriching life,
Why prolong it instead?
