Now that we've all seen it
Even the basic instincts may fail sometimes
And leave you unconscious for a while
Or longer
Resuscitation is not a miracle
But those who come back to life
Usually die within days
So if I close my eyes tonight
Do not wake me back
Didn't I tell you
Turn your back on me
I've been through so many winters
Witnessed too many summers as well
None of them lasted forever
None of us will last forever
Just the same weak mammals we are
Who shall turn to dust
Back to where we once began
One day
