I want an iron lung
waddaya want one of those for?
I can’t breathe
it’s easy – in/out/in/out
I’ve tried that and it don’t work for me
look I don’t know man
are you gonna give me one or not?
oh I can get ya one but there’s no going back
I don’t care, I need to breathe
you’re doin it right now – I can see the rise & fall
it’s an act…just practiced movement is all
a’right – I’ll call when it’s in but I still don’t get it
listen – when I was young I went to a kiddie pool
I layed on my back to see the world from beneath
and it was like being behind the mirror
but
i couldn’t move
i couldn’t breathe
and maybe I died then…I don’t know
cuz I still can’t breathe – it’s like that
like I’m stuck at the bottom of that wading pool
invisible to the shades around me
shade to the invisible around me
ok – i get it – you get it
I’ll call when it’s in
thanks
