Thump
Thump, Thump
The beating of a child's heart
Matching her mother's
Two hearts beat together
Thump
Thump, thump
Innate instinct
Adrenaline Flows
Straight to the heart
Thump, thump, thump
Faster than ever
ThumpThumpThump
Beating ever faster
Innate instinct
Thump
Thump, thump
Beating slows with age
A graceful descent
Thump
Thump
Thump
Nature running it's course
Thump
Thump
Thump
Slow and steady in the beginning
Painstakingly slow in the end
Thump
Thump
Nature says it's coming to an end
No science could predict
No technology could prevent
Thump
Dust returning to dust
Innate instinct
This is nature
Beautiful
Unstoppable
Inescapable
Innate Instinct
