Be careful the words you speak,
make them soft and sweet;
You never know from day to day,
which ones you'll have to eat;

My days are coming to an end,
Reaper waits patiently in the shadows
Smiles when I catch her eye

I'm not ready to go
Cancer eating my soul
Chemo taking its toll
I'm not ready to go

See the animal in his cage that you built. Are you sure what side you're on? What if everything around you, Isn't quite as it seems? What if all the world you think you know, Is an elaborate dream? -Nine Inch Nails
