Life is unstable
Like some theoretical particle
Unobservable, changed if looked at
Constant in its inconstancy
Life is unstable
Like some war zone
Destroying in seconds what took years to
build
Sending families fleeing into the night
Life is unstable
Like that first flicker of love
That explodes into red tinged nights
Or winks out some cold blue morning
Life is unstable
Like a city toppled by shaking earth
Washing homes and lives away in a cold
flood
Reducing great halls to timbers
Life is unstable
Like life itself
Bubbling up from nothing
To take that first step from ocean to land
