lyrics

Dearest alveoli
I think it's time we say goodbye
Sometimes the small things matter most

Sweet, sweet, bronchioles
I think it's time that you should go
I've eliminated your role

Unloving lower lobes
You let me down for the last time
I'm not fine, I guess I'll go it alone

Empty barrel-chest cavity
Cleared a space to store some things
Hand-me-downs I await

Time run low, chance won't last
Am I gonna have to give em back?
With this cargo I drag, I'd be fine with a crash

Then I can go ahead, and give 'em back
