Caught a spider in my hand
Feel the fangs in my skin
Snake around my neck
All the air leaving

Wolf quarters me
Have no guts to resist
Bear drags me to the den
Finally found home

Need a little more patience,
Can't find the time
Need a little more diligence,
Lack a piece of mind

I am what they eat
Soul for them to keep
I am what they eat
Chewed up in their teeth

Crow picks at my remains
There is not much left
Worms from the soil
Return me to mother

Need a little more patience,
Can't find the time
Need a little more diligence,
Lack a piece of mind
