| One at a time we’re taking a bow.
|
| I feel as though there is someone else here; |
| poisoning us from the inside out.
|
| I see no future, only here and now.
|
| Each passing moment-a lifetime.
|
| Why can’t breathing just be easy-even when you’re on your way out?
|
| I am falling short of white blood cells.
|
| My count is down-my time is up.
|
| There is weight on my chest, a push of air from the lips.
|
| Straining to sleep must be like begging for your life.
|
| One at a time we’re taking a bow.
|
| It looks like we have been followed.
|
| I thought I said to come alone.
|
| I can see less of myself now, and more of what’s replaced me. |
| (I am) conscious
|
| of the cessation of life.
|
| Why can’t breathing just be easy-even when you’re on your way out?
|
| I am falling short of white blood cells.
|
| My count is down-my time is up.
|
| I have dropped off the face of the earth.
|
| The birds of prey-they are awake (they are awake).
|
| The birds of prey-they are awake (they have been feasting on us for days).
|
| The birds of prey-they are awake (they are awake).

| The birds of prey-they are awake |
