I gave and gave - gave all I had
|
I took and took - all I could grab
|
I had it all and I had none
|
Now the game is over and it's all gone
|
|
My heart is worn out to keep beating
|
My lungs exhausted by all this breathing
|
My mind's too tired to keep grieving
|
|
I was against and I was for
|
I wanted less and wanted more
|
I won I lost, I lost and won
|
Now it's all over and I am done
|
|
My throat is too sore for more screaming
|
My eyes too swollen for more weeping
|
My wounds are too dry for more bleeding
|
My blood too drained for more streaming
|
|
My heart is slowing down
|
|
Long short is life is short and long
|
Strong weak am I am weak and strong
|
My crop is ready for the Reaping
|
My being ready for releasing
|
|
My heart is slowing down
|
