They say there is humor in misfortune, I wonder if they will laugh when I am dead, Why am I dying to live, if I m just living to die.

RIP CITWTT

I have to admit, listening to this made me cry.

You know I've heard it said there's beauty in distortion.
By some people who've withdrawn to find their heads
Now they say that there is humor in misfortune
You know I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead

Why am I fighting to live if I 'm just living to fight?
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight?
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?

Hey, you know some people say that values are subjective,
But they're just speaking words that someone else has said.
And so they live and fight and kill with no objective.
Sometimes it's hard to tell the living from the dead.

Why am I fighting to live if I 'm just living to fight?
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight?
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?

Yeah, you know I used to weave my words into confusion.
And so I hope you'll understand me when I 'm through
You know I used to live my life as an illusion,
But reality will make my dreams come true.

So I'll keep fighting to live till there's no reason to fight
And I'll keep trying to see until the end is in sight
You know I'm trying to give so c'mon give me a try
You know I'm dying to live until I'm ready ...
'til I'm ready .....
'til I'm ready .....
'til I'm ready to die

I'll miss you CIT.

He was only 1 year older than me. Everybody should be thinking that you could be next. Live your moments as if you know it will end soon.

And if I'm next, I just want everybody to know this board has given me great pleasure and purpose since I've been here. It's the only place in the world the Jambalaya Calculator could have been launched. Thank you particularly Pochejp, Kajungee, Gris Gris, HungryOne, Martini, Winkface, Louisiana Lady, Kosmo, bossflossjr, SW2SCLA, Powerman, Coater, and many more.

I'm going to die without leaving any descendants. I hope that I've left some legacy here for the future.
