Hanging by the thread of cloth

Life was good, I was happy
I had my whole life ahead
But always remember, life is cloth
Hanging by six thread

Life got slower, days got darker
I sit and lay on my bed
But always remember, life is cloth
Hanging by five thread

Time went on, know one noticed
I got the feeling of dread
But always remember, life is cloth
Hanging by four thread

I stopped going out, I couldn't get up
My body feels like thread
But always remember, life is cloth
Hanging by three thread

Though the days got hotter, my clothes got longer
I'm barely ever fed
But always remember, life is cloth
Hanging by two thread

My wrists are sore, but I don't care
My blood is Crimson red
But always remember, life is cloth
Hanging by one thread

My problems gone, life goes on
I feel a bit light head
But always remember, life is cloth
And now the cloth is dead.
