Life is My Creation, Imagination is My Defense

This one sings for itself.

"The Creationist" by Kerli

This is an old
And funny poem
I accidentally
Overheard

It keeps
The little children
Playing
And bigger children
Spread the word

My memory is bad
So I always tend
To forget how it goes
But

Life is my creation
Is my best friend
Imagination
Is my defense
And I'll keep walking
When skies are grey
Whatever happens
Was meant that way

You're no better
Or no worse
Than the others
We are all the same

And life
Is just a moment
You might as well
Enjoy this day

It's time
To start believing
That everything
You want is on its way
And

Life is my creation
Is my best friend
Imagination
Is my defense
And I'll keep walking
When skies are grey
Whatever happens
Was meant that way

We'll be growing
Into knowing
While we're floating
Keep on going
Keep on going

I'm a creationist
I'm a creationist

This is an old
And funny poem
I accidentally
Overheard
