Like Petals From a Flower
In our final moments
Life falls away, like petals from a flower
More and more without consent
Going cold, lack of power
Four breaths, three breaths, two breaths, one
We live and die beneath open sun
We beg, we plead, promise to change our ways
But each of us must meet
The end of our days
Some of us go quiet, and discreet
Others scream and pray and curse
Remember a favorite moment
Sob out a bible verse
Meet the fog
See the end
Life falls away, like petals from a flower
More and more without consent
Going cold, lack of power
Four breaths, three breaths, two breaths, one
We live and die beneath open sun
We beg, we plead, promise to change our ways
But each of us must meet
The end of our days
Some of us go quiet, and discreet
Others scream and pray and curse
Remember a favorite moment
Sob out a bible verse
Meet the fog
See the end
