lyrics

Vivid pain takes me back
to my hospital bed
Bright light, cannot breathe
listening to what is said

"Do something! He's dying here!"
And the sound of a screaming EKG
The pain's wearing off and I relax
tracing back to that feeling I had in my youth

Out of body experience
Open casket, but that's not me
Old, worn, withered, scarred
A body deprived of the breath of life

Flowers surrounding the coffin
Songs are sung in praise of who I was
but I cannot understand their meaning
because I left my mortal flaws with that skin

Everybody dies alone, now I know
The unresolved that I leave with them
is something I cannot change
and I hope the void in their hearts will heal

"I do not deserve your tears" I screamed
"I was a failure as a husband and father"
If this is just a dream
I would change everything, I would change my ways!

I would earn your love and in the end your tears
and the flowers and your mournful songs
Something change within and I lose my sight
as my lifeline is uphill and downhill again on that screen
