Resuscitate

Long gone are the days when blood flowed through my frozen veins

Dormant are the thoughts of a complete recovery

And I know it's not the time to let it slip away

When all that's in my grasp turns to visions of a world so bleak

Reach inside, pull out what was once the greatest part of me

Resuscitate this life of mine before the angel calls

Shock my system, wake me up, don't let me close my eyes

I'll gasp for breath if you give me the air

Through these years in solitary I haven't felt a thing

Bring an end to a winter trapped in dark clouds

Bring back the strength to get up that's never felt so pointless

I have been drawn and quartered, bound and gagged, left for dead

Watching all I've hoped for pass me by while I fail to survive

This artificial adrenaline will run out before I know it

You are the last chance I have to save what's left of me

If I'm left alone a new day loses it's certainty

But I'm not ready to lay down

My time isn't up just yet

I need to find a way out of this hollow coma

And I can't afford to be ignored

Listen, reach out, this is just another plea for aid

Just know that this time all I am hangs in the balance

Resuscitate this life because I've got so much more to say
