My lungs are closing in,
I need more calm to fill it with
A different melody
A different song to fill it with
My head is caving in
I need more space to fill it with
A different sense of time
A different place to fill it with
I feel I’m getting closer to the end
But I don’t want to go
Oh no not yet
When everything’s on fire
I need new hands to feel it with
When everyone’s a liar
A whole new plan to deal with
I’ve lost track of my health
I need new eyes to see it with
Some new found sense of self
A new mind to free it with
I’m feeling that I just let myself go
But I don’t want to be stuck here
All alone
In between all the lives I’ve lived
a line traces all that I give
And everything that I’ve taken away
But nothing’s truer that to live just for today
Or so they say
In the belly of the beast
I need more light to fill it with
I look on as they feast
Give me more knives
To kill them with
