I was suffocating without fire arms.
I was drowning without a paddle.
I was bleeding without a smudgeon.
I was exasperated without despair.
I was done before it began.
I was tied before it was even off.
I was drunk before the first sip.
I was dead before the rooster cocked.
I was cancelled before the first ****.
I was perplexed before I knew the why?
