On Life and Death

Before you get too close… Listen to the sound of the clock Every part of me is alive You need… Before you get too close… Go ahead and scream Scratch at the surface Go ahead and bleed Find your souls true purpose Realize that nothing is… But suddenly can be Before you get too close… Take a long look Stare at the world about you Take a deep breathe Catch a falling leaf Before you get to close Live. Tell me what it felt like… Tell me what to need is like
