Dying To Live

I've got a sickness
Something bad slowly eating me
And I don't think that I can fix this
I'm lonely and
I'm only human
Well, that's my problem

Maybe someday
We can lift each other higher
Than these earthly wings would let us go
We'll melt away
We'll melt away and die
Away and die

I'm scared of what's to come
And what's to come undone
In the end
All that my life's become
Is time for me to run
And pretend that my mind will live again

Hurry Self, think quickly...
I feel blood in my lungs and I'm dying to live
This pain was made by recipe
It's not out on my skin
It's in my mind in knowing I won't live again
