This is life

                                        [and life is]


       beautifully chaotic.

This is shouting voices screeching until vocal chords break

                                        [heartings beating in tandem, can't you hear them?]

       
      sweat and skin and blood.

This is a revolution

                                        [holding hands and tangling limbs until we feel]


      we are ghosts of what we were.

This is singing until our lips bleed

                                         [it's a war cry, darling]

       a battle song.

We are soldiers fighting, fighting
        f
        i
        g
        h
        t
        i
        n
        g
for the right to  breathe

                                     [for the right to cry and destroy]

This is picking up the pieces and rebuilding ourselves

                                     [who needs religion when we can fix ourselves?]

         we're starting over.


This is life

                                         [and life is]


           beautifully chaotic.
