Then you wake
Heart kept in the body bag, pathetic
Picture framed obituary faded in the attic
A shadow of someone you used to be
Youve seen so many in this way
They swore youd never become the machine
A long forgotten memory
Everything you ever wanted
Everything you never had
Everything lies forgotten and dead
Everything turns to nothing
Another day, another turn from the grave
Is it worth everything that you gave?
What a beautiful way to waste away?
Consumed by dependency
A lesson in despondency
A long forgotten memory
And then you wake
Everything you ever wanted
Everything you never had
Everything lies forgotten and dead
Everything turns to nothing
And then you wake
And then you wake
How quickly the master turns into the slave
Slowly succumbing with every dying age
Everything you ever wanted
Everything you never had
Everything lies forgotten and dead
Everything turns to nothing
Everything turns to nothing
