Just for a few seconds
My minute was bright
Just for a few seconds
I could feel the power of flight
And for those seconds I invested the will to fight

Moving out
I was scared
All the sounds echoing in my head
There was a limp on the way out
Bought the leg the very next day

I was sold in fifteen seconds
Bought you all
With the sale of me
All I could see, couldn't afford all the things you said
Sold the lights downtown, rid the poisons in my head
For the prize of living with you
I returned from the dead

I saw that light, just for fifteen seconds
Now I can afford to love you without dread
Come one they would say,
And You did,
You saved myself
