Half-life of oxygen spent breathing homesick air 

Tearing my heart apart, yours ticks without a tear 

Slow down, I haven't moved at all 

The cold can't kill us but we won't survive the fall 



Slipping, falling away 

Hold on day to day, year to year, from here to there 



Poison my speaking voice with half-truths and denials 

Converting oxygen by living, breathing, suffering, screaming 



We can't, we can, we will, we will, we won't 

Slow down
