Mechanical Breath
Removed from stasis to oblivion
Corrupted body becomes unsustainable
Regressive in its fragile consciousness
Succumb to sleep
Cold and indifferent
The body left behind
Soul atomized
Damn the conscious mind
And its unwillingness
Begin the realization of impermanence
And every labored breath, mechanical
The body ravaged and cancerous
To know you're never waking up from this
Incoherent in its final sentiments
Revert to adolescent desperation
Profound longing for those close to us
And to ease the burden of hopelessness
The body left behind
Soul atomized
Damn the conscious mind
And its unwillingness
Begin the realization of impermanence
And every labored breath, mechanical
The body ravaged and cancerous
To know you're never waking up from this
Dear father,
Take my breath
And I'll scream until there's nothing left
Just bury me
Just bury me
Dear father,
Take my life
Your child has lost the will to fight
The will to bleed
The way you bled for me
Begin the realization of impermanence
And every labored breath, mechanical
The body ravaged and cancerous
To know you're never waking up from this
