What Kills You?

Let your heart sink.

Let your bare knees be exposed to the cold air.

Let your hair be drenched in the rainwater.

Crying in the shower, fast and slow,

what kills you? do you know?

When life gives you lemons,

for how long do you keep making lemonades?

When you're happy

and you realise it,

there comes a sudden wave of existential crisis, how do you fight it?

Crying in the shower, fast and slow,

what kills you, do you know?

You are sitting in the class

which is not getting over any sooner

and you are exchanging glances

with the board, the wall,

the professor and the door

so that nobody knows

that you are zoned out.

But there still exists a world outside of you and not just inside you.

Crying in the shower, fast and slow,

what kills you? Do you know?
