We live like mice, eternally.

We've never seen the endless...

Lemmings en route we'll have to see,

Where will it take our ashes.



We've run away, we've run so far

Making our wish upon a....

How much, how long, how deep we bleed,

once more to wet these lashes.



We've never paid the price for life,

We've never broken through the ice,

We'll never stop, until the last

and final breath...The shortest gasp.



So few will pay enough for love,

Look over push, go straight to shove,

A quickened flinch and a little blood,

our chastity lies deep in mud.



Never hurry, never worry,

never lift your face from the ground.

Never gain an ounce of hope.

Know what you've sought is what you've found.



Never struggle, never forgive,

never wake from dreaming, never live.

Never put the pieces together,

always take and take and take until they give.



We've never paid, we've never seen,

we run from all we've ever been,

We've never hurt enough to count,
