[Intro]
Breathin’ in (in, in, in)
(Oxygen)

[Bridge]
And, then again….

[Verse 1]
Here we are. Take a breath.
Live… before your death
What do you make
And, what do you take?

[Chorus]
Argon? (Bring ‘er on!)
And, again (With the nitrogen)
Takin’ in gasses
(By the masses)

[Bridge]
… neon, helium
(I am)
methane…
(Sounds insane)
And krypton
(Ah, come on?)

Breathin’ in
(Oxygen)

[Bridge]
And, then again….

[Verse 2]
(Hear?)
We’re still here.
Take a breath.
Come to life… before your death
[Bridge]
After all, before you fall…
What do you make
And, what do you take?

[Chorus]
Argon? (Bring ‘er on!)
And, again (With the nitrogen)
Takin’ in gasses
(By the masses)

[Bridge]
… neon, helium
(I am)
methane…
(Sounds insane)

[Outro]
And kryptonite
(I cannot fight)

A SCIENCE NOTE
The air we breathe is a mixture of several gases. Here’s a breakdown of the main gases we inhale:

1. Nitrogen (N₂) – About 78% of the air we breathe is nitrogen. While it’s not used by the body, it dilutes the oxygen and plays a role in respiratory processes.
2. Oxygen (O₂) – About 21% of the air is oxygen. This is the critical gas that our body uses for cellular respiration, which produces energy.
3. Argon (Ar) – About 0.93% of the air is argon, an inert gas that doesn’t react with the body and is simply exhaled.
4. Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) – About 0.04% of the air is carbon dioxide, though it’s a waste product of respiration that we also exhale in larger amounts.
5. Other trace gases – There are small amounts of gases like neon, helium, methane, and krypton, but these are in very low concentrations and have no significant role in respiration.

Even though we mostly need oxygen, our lungs filter and process all of these gases with every breath we take.

[Intro]
Is your neuron on?
(How does it get along)
Is your neuron on?
(Has something gone wrong)

[Verse 1]
Do your eyes move
Absence of reflexes
Starting to prove
Unconsciousness

[Chorus]
Brain perplexes
Electrical current
Muscle relaxes
Functions aren’t

[Bridge]
Is your neuron on?
(How does it get along)
Is your neuron on?
(Has something gone wrong)

[Verse 2]
No reaction to pain
Lack of responsiveness
No, can not regain…
Consciousness

[Chorus]
Brain perplexes
Electrical current
Muscle relaxes
Functions aren’t

[Bridge]
Is your neuron on?
(How does it get along)
Is your neuron on?
(Has something gone wrong)

[Chorus]
Brain perplexes
Electrical current
Muscle relaxes
Functions aren’t

[Bridge]
Is your neuron on?
(How does it get along)
Is your neuron on?
(Has something gone wrong)

[Outro]
Is your neuron on?
(Or have they all gone?)

A SCIENCE NOTE

Signs of unconsciousness include:

1. Lack of responsiveness: The person does not respond to external stimuli, such as touch, sound, or light.
2. No reaction to pain: There is no response to painful stimuli like pinching or shaking.
3. Unresponsive to verbal cues: The person doesn’t respond to their name or any commands.
4. Irregular or shallow breathing: Breathing may be slow, irregular, or very shallow.
5. Inability to move voluntarily: The person is limp, with no voluntary movement.
6. No eye movement: Eyes may remain closed, or if open, there’s no movement or focus.
7. Absence of reflexes: Reflexes such as gagging or blinking may be diminished or absent.
8. Pale or cold skin: Skin might appear unusually pale or cool to the touch, depending on the cause.

If someone exhibits these signs, they require immediate medical attention.

About Neurons
Neurons, the specialized cells responsible for transmitting signals in the nervous system, are found throughout the body, including the throat (pharynx and larynx). These neurons play a critical role in monitoring and protecting the airway from harmful substances. They are part of a reflex system that helps prevent foreign materials, such as food, liquid, or stomach acid, from entering the lungs.

When you drink something and it “goes down the wrong tube” (i.e., into the airway instead of the esophagus), sensory neurons in the throat detect this and send signals to the brain. These signals travel through the vagus nerve, which connects many organs, including the throat, to the brainstem. In response, the brain triggers a reflex, such as coughing or gagging, to expel the material and protect the lungs from aspiration.

Similarly, if you have acid reflux—when stomach acid rises into the esophagus—neurons in the esophagus and throat sense the irritation caused by the acid. These neurons send signals to the brain, often causing discomfort or pain (heartburn) and prompting protective responses, such as swallowing or coughing, to clear the acid and prevent it from reaching the lungs.

This protective network of neurons in the throat and other parts of the body is essential for maintaining proper function and preventing injury to the respiratory system.
