I will watch my ways
and keep my tongue from the delights of this world.
I will put a muzzle on my mouth
as long as she dwells within.
Show me, my life's end
and the number of my days.
Each mans life is but a breath
man is a mere phantom as he goes to and fro;
He bustles about, but only in vain.
Your invasion consumes me
You rebuke and discipline me
You **** every last breath out of me.
Slowly trapping me, until i become no more.
Look away from me, that i may rejoice again
before i depart and am no more.

I will watch my ways
and keep my tongue from the delights of this world.
I will put a muzzle on my mouth

Show me, my life's end

Each mans life is but a breath
man is a mere phantom as he goes to and fro;
He bustles about, but only in vain.
Your invasion consumes me
You rebuke and discipline me
You **** every last breath out of me.
Slowly trapping me, until i become no more.
Look away from me, that i may rejoice again
before i depart and am no more.
