Verse I:
It's not fair to him or I
That I have to stay here and live my life
while gets to go up and live on the other side
There comes a time in everyone's life
where we have to give up this fight for life
and give it all up and accept the fate that has us.
Chorus:
What do I have to show for my 20 long years here on earth?
We were born the same year,
but he has 70 years on me.
Verse II:
I can't imagine knowing my fate for half my life
Oh what a fright
I can't believe he went on not in fear everyday
Bridge:
He was diagnosed at a young age
Dr. said time isn't on your side
He decided to embrace life
He's wiser than I
like a 90 year old.
Chorus
Verse III:
He went on everyday day
all while knowing he'd face his fate
and he did that day
just after 4o'clock that tuesday
Chorus

hehe i like how you have the tabs in the author comment. I like how this tells a story ,a folky style maybe?
i also like the chorus , i think you worded it very well.
I wonder though what type of song this is and if it is indeed a folk song.
good shit.
