Breathe in, breathe out.
For there's no one around.
Run faster they say, but it's never fast enough.
Living day to day, yet it feels I'm in a rush.

I pick one foot up, though there's always one on the ground.
Don't look weak act tough, for what you don't have you must scrounge.

Breathe in, breath out. They're watching you now.
Find somewhere quiet, and stay far from the noise.
Internal riots, wounded up like a toy.

Finally I'm alone, wind chimes in the distance.
No need to condone, reject all assistance.
Breathe in, breathe out. The purest of sounds.

Footsteps grow nearer, they begin to match my own.
I am the judger, for what you reap has been sewn.
