A thousand minds
That I am in
A thousand crawling
Desperate limbs
A thousand eyes
That flicker past
A thousand lives
That do not last
A thousand hands
I watch them seize
A thousand throats
That cease to breathe
A thousand screams
A thousand kinds
Go ringing through
A thousand minds
The mind of one
The mind of two
The mind of me
The mind of you
A thousand skulls
Miles of bone
This rattle's all
I've ever known
A thousand wars
Around me rage
A thousand more
I've left to wage
A thousand calls
And high commands
And running feet
In vast scorched sands
A thousand throats
Full of my voice
A thousand wills
Tied to my choice
The will of none
The will of all
The will to stand
The will to fall
A thousand words
Could not describe
A thousand veins'
Boiling riptide
A thousand wants
A thousand needs
A thousand warnings
We must heed
