Not Dead Enough

What triggered this treachery

One way lane to extinction

Through my skin into ones mouth

To be spit back on my face

You blew the air in

You got my blood out

But to you I'm not dead

Still not dead enough

Powered by the machine

Getting empty from the inside

So virtual and unreal

No life should end like this

You blew the air in

You got my blood out

But to you I'm not dead

Still not dead enough

Someone waiting for a birth

I've wasted my life for it

The order that I scorn

The order I must die for

Heal me anyway you can

End my cold life functions

Feed me no more

No longer should I be

Not dead enough - you blew the air in

Not dead enough - you got my blood out

Not quite alive - but to you I'm not dead

Still not dead enough

Burn me over and over again

Being dead must be liberating
