Realize What We Are, Shall We?

Oh how our minds thicken
To those of the lost and least
This is when we see us die
This is when we see selflessness lie

Death has held us here
In a faint and fading dream
Where we were not one, but numb
This is where we lay

Oh God, life in such fragile hands
Replay my death, back to the jump
I'll take this step, and jump again
This can't be where we die

And in the mid-air 
Where screams of self-concern
Had filled my lungs
And now, I hear my thoughts

"Fall home, you sweet decay"
I coughed it a thousand times
I'll sing it for a thousand more

1 two cents' worth:

stanza is such an ugly word,
but the last of this one; i love it.
as you already know.
