This is about my brother who died.
Breath by breath

Step by step

I too draw closer to death

Every-night i think of your death

Your last breath

The day you

Would succumb to death

Breath by breath

Step by step

I to draw closer to death

The blood

That came in a flood

The tears

That were followed by fear

Breath by breath

I think of your death

Step by step

I too draw closer to death

I think of the day

You would go to sleep

And the reaper would come to reap

For your soul

Was his too keep

Breath by breath

Step by step

I too draw closer to death

Every night i think of your death

The day the bullet left the gun

And set you free

From this mortal hell

And released you from this spell

Breath by breath

I think of your death

Step by step

I too draw closer to death

I remember that day

The day you made me say

Goodbye

The day you would learn to fly

High above the sky

Breath by breath

Some day i will take

My last breath

And meet death

For when i enter the eternal

Sleep the reaper comes to reap

For my soul is his to keep

Step by step

I too draw closer to death
