Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I can't remember anything

Can't tell if this is true or dream

Deep down inside I feel to scream

This terrible silence stops me

[Verse 2]

Now that the war is through with me

I'm waking up, I cannot see

That there's not much left of me

Nothing is real but pain now

[Verse 3]

Hold my breath as I wish for death

Oh please, God, wake me

[Verse 4]

Back in the womb it's much too real

In pumps life that I must feel

But can't look forward to reveal

Look to the time when I'll live

[Verse 5]

Fed through the tube that sticks in me

Just like a wartime novelty

Tied to machines that make me be

Cut this shit off from me

[Verse 6]

Hold my breath as I wish for death

Oh please, God, wake me

Please, God, wake me

[Verse 7]

Now the world is gone, I'm just one

Oh God, help me

Hold my breath as I wish for death

Oh please, God, help me

Help me

[Verse 8]

Darkness

Imprisoning me

All that I see

Absolute horror

I cannot live

I cannot die

Trapped in myself

Body my holding cell

[Verse 9]

Landmine

Has taken my sight

Taken my speech

Taken my hearing

Taken my arms

Taken my legs

Taken my soul

Left me with life in hell

[Verse 10]

Oh no, oh God no, please, no no

Oh please, God, help me
