Comatose

I once swore to live
I once crawled to breathe
I've endured the will to suffer in silence

It's been years since I could feel
Your beating pulse, the only one here
And alas, only I am to blame
In my fictitious fight I see you smiling

As if you could bring me home
In this shattered shell I am alone

Electric hearts and shackle wires
The dearest noose you can't afford
The dearest noose you can't afford
I am still a soldier in this ward
The stillest soldier in this ward

This is not a dream...
I give up
It's like a closed casket reunion
A comatose cathartic movement

Some of us were born to burn
Like a thousand suns,
My soul is fucking old, an antique urn
I once swore to live
I once crawled to breathe
