| Hold on to me,
|
| Don’t loosen your grip.
|
| Cause you know I’m bound to leave,
|
| Bags packed to go,
|
| I hope you know that
|
| I hope your organs fail you before I do,
|
| I hope your lungs run out of air before your dreams run out of truth,
|
| I hope your heart explodes before you watch me turn human.
|
| I hope you shiver from the cold before I let you sink,
|
| I hope your body gives up before all your joy leaves,
|
| and on that day you close your eyes, I hope you don’t feel a thing.
|
| Take all the time need, don’t worry about me.
|
| Because my rage has been my air to breathe, filling up my lungs.
|
| I just don’t have the strength,
|
| The strength you really need.
|
| I hope your organs fail you before I do,
|
| I hope your lungs run out of air before your dreams run out of truth,
|
| I hope your heart explodes before you watch me turn human.
|
| I hope you shiver from the cold before I let you sink,
|
| I hope your body gives up before all your joy leaves,
|
| and on that day you close your eyes, I hope you don’t feel a thing. |
