Tribute to Damo, Andy and Josh.

I wrote this for an insert for my bands record, but it got scrapped from the artwork. Thought I'd post it.

Every single day the sun rises and the sun sets.
People go to work and you can see the looks on their faces as they drive past you in their cars.
They sip their coffee, check their phones and apply lipstick in the mirror at the traffic lights.
They live seemingly exciting lives while we stand aside and assess their mundane existence.
And the lights change.
And people go on with their lives.
What we do is different. This is how we’ve chosen to live.
Every single day we encounter people in our lives that move us to change.
One day she’ll be your wife.
One day he’ll be your brother-in-law.
One day they’ll be you’re best friend.
But one day they won’t be there.
The time we spend with each other is often taken for granted. Never thinking that ends come to those we treasure. Never knowing when that day will come.
So make sure they know that they’re loved.
Tell someone you care.
Buy someone a cup of coffee.
Eat lunch.
Share a cigarette.
Walk and hold hands.
Whatever you do, just be sure that you make it count.
Because every single day the sun rises and the sun sets.
But, one day the sun will only rise.
And then it’s too late.


Cheers.
Clag.

I really like this.
Its true.
One minute someone is with you..
The next there just memories.
Its sad how fast it can happen.
But thats life i guess.
