    one day you'll just stop
    your blood won't flow
    it'll just stick and clot

    your nails will crumble
    and your hair dissapear
    leaving no semblance
    of beauty
    or fear

    your skin will turn white
    and your pupils go gray
    you won't be able to talk
    you'll have nothing to say

    the strange things that mattered
    the paint and the glue
    that held you together
    will all seem so foolish
    when you follow your shadow
    out into the street
    to that weird sting of concrete
    on sensitive feet
    and you see all those people
    whose opinions made you
    and the way underneath
    they are all human too
    as you all die together
    under the baking sun
    as you all die together
    you all die as one
