Take ten deep breaths to quiet down your mind,
and close your eyes to dream a dream so bright,
Ten tiny breaths to not feel left behind.

To dream of peace that one day she may find,
a dream that keeps you up sometimes at night,
Take ten deep breaths to quiet down your mind.

Not seeing her and wishing to be blind,
while she stared into such a blinding light,
Ten tiny breaths to not feel left behind.

To hear her voice makes teeth begin to grind,
a voice of sandpaper it fills with fright,
Take ten deep breaths to quiet down your mind.

Never another women be so kind,
as even in death she took off in flight,
Ten tiny breaths to not feel left behind.

You could not imagine the way she shined,
so beautiful there never was a sight,
Take ten deep breaths to quiet down your mind,
Ten tiny breaths to not feel left behind.
