Run

In this liquid world,
In this fluid, fluid, fluid world
How do I remember to run and breathe at the same time.
Run, run, run while the minutes drain through
Mine and yours, darkness claims its piece of flesh.
I raise my hand - and my armies rise
I raise my hands - and the blood tide rises
In this crumbling place, in this tiny narrow place
In this mean small space.

Remember this.
I raise my hands
Remember this
I raise my head
Remember this
I raise my eyes
Remember this
look up at the sky
Remember this - before the breath slips away.

There were those of us who thought of this
There were those of us who remembered this
In this liquid world
In this fluid, fluid, fluid world
Breathe and run, breathe and run, breathe and run
How do I remember to breathe and run at the same damn time
On this spinning, rocking world
The divine slips away as we run and breathe,
run and breathe,
run and breathe,
run and breathe,
one last damn time.
