I backed my ambulance into a tree. I tried so hard to avoid it, But there it was, right behind me. I'm surrounded by trees, And behind those is a body of water. Nowhere to go. As soon as I see a way between the trees And try to take it, I am drowning. Desperately trying to stay afloat, But I'm not the best swimmer. One day, I won't be strong enough to hold on To the air above the water, And I'll let the water fill up my lungs And take me, just as it took my ambulance
