Terminal

The doctor says I'm dying, I die a little every day
 He's got no prescription that could take my death away
 The doctor says, it don't look so good
 It's terminal
 Some folks die in offices one day at a time
 They could live a hundred years, but their soul's already died
 Don't let your spirit die before your body does
 We're terminal
 We're terminal
 We are, we are the living souls
 With terminal hearts, terminal parts
 Flickering like candles, shimmering like candles
 We're fatally flawed, we're fatally flawed
 Whenever I start cursing at the traffic or the phone
 I remind myself that we have all got cancer in our bones
 Don't yell at the dead, show a little respect
 It's terminal
 Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust
 For our days here are like grass
 We flourish like a flower of the field
 The wind blows and it is gone
 And its place remembers it no more
 Naked, we came from our mother's womb
 And naked, we will depart
 For we bring nothing into the world
 And we can't take nothing away
 For we bring nothing into the world
 And we can't take nothing away
 For we bring nothing into the world
 And we can't take nothing away
 For we bring nothing into the world
 And we can't take nothing away
 For we bring nothing into the world
 And we can't take nothing away
 We are, we are, we are, we are
 We are, we are the living souls
 With terminal hearts, terminal parts
 Flickering like candles, flickering like candles
 We're fatally flawed in the image of God
