Breathing is shallow Pain won't subside ill respiration Air subdivides Tremors of loathing Crawl up my spine Fuse to my brainstem Enter my mind Spinal excision, mental fibrosis Ossification, thoughts of neurosis Cerebral pressure, weight of the world Cervical swelling, no longer breathing Crushing my windpipe, constrict my life Hypoxic blood loss, brain slowly dies Organ dysfunction at cellular speeds Enter hemorrhagic shock Depriving my body of organic function Loss of vital oxidation Choking myself back to life Perpetual gasping of breath Swaying in time from the noose Grasping at life's final thread Foaming at the mouth of the end
