Sitting, watching,
fearing all I see.
Many secrets, held inside of me.
Cold and shaking, sweating all over,
this is my first breath after a coma.
They can't understand
why I never speak.
You'll never see me again
the way you remember me,
the way you wanted me to be.
Now revived, half alive, not nearly enough to survive,
forget my name and forget the past.
Your heart will be set free from me at last.
"Do what we say and follow the rules,
if you start to talk we swear you can leave".
But promises only comfort fools
and its hard to speak when you cant even breathe.
You can't understand,
this is where I remain.
I can't watch you fly away,
fly away.
If this could be real
then I'd try to feel
just for one day.
One Day!
A medicated mind,
an injection directly to the brain,
a near lethal dose to kill the pain.
I dont recognize my face,
I don't feel the same.
A spiritual momentary affliction,
a catatonic fit.
Quiet now, this won't hurt a bit,
the permanent silence, the ultimate hit.
A flock of ghosts by my bedside.
A silent whisper and I am free.
The final trip, a lucid ride
was all I ever needed.
You can't understand
this is where I remain
I can't watch you fly away,
fly away.
If this could be real
then I'd try to feel
just for one day
One day!
Staring through the window
into a thousands lives ago
like a memory of a dream
that I swore I've never seen.
Quiet now, come along for the ride.
