The saying goes:
'Ignore your teeth
And they'll go away'

Well, heed this word
My friend today

There is more to which
This saying applies

Listen closely and
Open your eyes

Ignore your job
It'll go away

Ignore your kids
They too shall leave

Ignore your wife
She'll soon be gone

I know you don't want
To believe me

But when you wake up alone
One day you will see

You'll have no one to blame
But yourself

When it's too late
And such a shame!

The truth of the matter is that you always know the right thing to do. The hard part is doing it.
