Some Die and Some Cry, but Some Live and Some Give
My life fades before my eyes,
Everything around me dies,
I scream for anyone,
But I'm ignored by everyone.
I run through the woods,
But I don't see the roots,
I fall to the ground,
I was never crowned.
I swim thru the sea,
But land I cannot see,
I'm pulled under,
I can hear my heart beat like a drummer.
I crawl up Everest,
But I can't feel the rest,
I fall cold,
And freeze but never grow old.
I drag myself through the desert,
But there is not dessert,
I fall to the hot sand,
And now I know I'm dammed.
I cry out,
No one is about,
My soul is fleeing,
There goes my being.
A hand in the branches,
A hand in the crystal waters,
A hand in the cold,
A hand in the heat,
A man who hears my call.
He helps me to my feet,
Faster does my heart beat,
My gaze is drawn to his,
Who knows what true love is.
He helps me,
He gives me a key,
Then he takes me home,
To Rome.
I sleep in his bed,
I wake to sheets of red,
I find him on my side,
I know I haven't died.
He says it was a near miss,
I just give him a kiss,
Thank you so much,
Let’s go get some brunch.
