Why so grateful deadman?
You are dead
Your heart stopped
Your brain oxygenless
You are nothing
Nothing and growing nothinger
Lost through the sieve
But I am not dead and I see you
So you are not gone yet
How grateful you must be
Maybe to me
Or maybe I’m grateful to you
Either way we together are life
Waltzing partners
