"Everything is more beautiful because we are doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again."


What do you want to be,

Nurse, Layard, Doctor, Athlete,

Decide.

Decide. 

Decide.

You are running out of time,

You are running out,

You are running,

Please.


Why do you waste your time,

This will not help,

This is not right, 

Work on this,

Focus on your priorities,

You need to find it,

You need it, 

Find it,

Just.


Who do you think you are,

You need this, this, this, this

Piles, piles, and piles

Scattering brain,

Shattering thoughts,

You are hanging by a thread,

Ripping,

Tipping, 

Falling, 

You can not break,

You can not,

You can,

Stop.


When do you want it to end,

Will it become a distant thing, 

To be nothing more than a heartbeat,

Nothing more than a whisper,

To be nothing,

To be more,

To be anything,

It.


How do you plan your days,

Plan your thoughts,

Look through the world,

Look at your page,

Look for the words,

Searching for a past,

Searching for time,

Searching you,

Please.
