We are these
the deceiving
believing
nothing to stop us
find a pace
it's own race

Inhale
exhale
she's nervous
contradiction,
making her sweat
expected and
the unexpected

New and old
this is our phenomenal
fade away
towards the stars
we move
like this

We bleed
and scream
alive and
dead
in the very same
instant

It's us... before us
and now...
our own salvation
our own haven,
