thirteen seconds to die

it’s too late again
he lived his life
but before he’s gone
there’s something left to do

thirteen seconds to smile

there are children on the street
but he’s got no money left
regardless he feels like a thief
so he smiled at them

thirteen seconds to care

there are protests everywhere
usually he ignores this part
he always wanted a fresh start
but people didn’t care

thirteen seconds to shine

someone yelled at him
but he didn’t understand
he was shoved and hit
finally there was his light

thirteen seconds to die
