I took my shirt off in the yard
No one saw that the skin on my shoulders was golden
Now it's not
My shirt's back on
I forgot my songs
The glow is gone
My gliding body stopped
I could not get through september without a battle
I faced death
I went in with my arms swinging
But i heard my own breath
And i have to face that i'm still living
I'm still flesh
I hold on to awful feelings
I'm not dead
There's no end
My face is red
My blood
Flows harshly
My heart
Beats loudly
My chest still draws breath
I hold it
I'm buoyant
There's no end
