Machines that make me breathe, I just cant stand their terrible scream

Im stumbling through smoke-filled rooms

With only darkness ahead, I wish I was dead

Drowned in a distance, Im so safe and sound

Damn well protected from all those around

Seeking the life that was taken from me

Still all I see is a man on his knees



Although Im asleep, can you feel Im here?

Lost in this place, screaming for you



Back on my feet when a distant light

Brings me some hope and a strength that had died

A doorway that speaks of the world I once left

A final way out and a final way back

Then a sudden change makes the light start to fade

I need to run but I stumble instead

The light disappears as I lay on the ground

My last hope of freedom is turned into none



Will I ever speak again, love again?

Will I ever leave my mind?

I am trapped inside myself, far from the outside

Why wont they let me die?

Im tired as I lay here bleeding on the ground



Breathe

(Were the machines, the only friends around

Stay for a while and let us keep you alive)



Breathe



Here I am, Im lost in this place

Wish I could just say goodbye

But youre not around to hear my cries



Will I ever speak again, love again?

Will I ever leave my mind?

I am trapped inside myself, far from the outside

Why wont they just let me die?



Die
