Lyrics:
There are
No last words for the damned, I never thought I would die here
My heartbeat slows to a crawl, on this hospital bed
How many times am I going to die?
How many times do I have to suffer, in this life?
Still the pain I feel, it would be easier to
Just fall asleep and give up, to never feel again
Yet as I glare at the ceiling, I know that I do not want this
I made that bet long ago - I don't intend to lose
I have struggled before, and I will struggle again
Lived through worse, I won't die while I'm on the mend
Through the pain I see
My life belongs to me!
On borrowed time, I have to try
To make a life, I won't regret
Despite the pain, I will survive
I will not die - won't let you take me now!
There is pain in trauma - they say the body keeps the score
If that is so, it makes me wonder if I'll ever heal
But I am lucky I'm alive, statistical analogies
Mean that I should be dead - and not surviving like I am
'Cause for the most of my life, I have been chasing after hope
Some distant light at the end, of the tunnel that forged me
But now that I have reached it - the sunlight sears my skin
And had I not been this stubborn, I probably would've turned back
And there's a comfort in ignorance, of a better life
There is comfort in the shadows that light casts on the wall
But they are all illusions, and I can see that now
I got out of the dark - but still I fight for my life
I have struggled before, and I will struggle again
Lived through worse, I won't die while I'm on the mend
Through the pain I see
My life belongs to me!
On borrowed time, I have to try
To make a life, I won't regret
Despite the pain, I will survive
I will not die - won't let you take me now!
My eyelids are heavy
And my hands are so cold
I remember a time, when my heart stopped beating
I remember the days, that I wanted to die
Would it be easier? Yes, to fall asleep for the last time
'Cause I am so fucking tired, I feel so goddamn cold
There might be no happy ending - I'm well aware of that
But I did not come this far, just to succumb like this
In defiance of death - in defiance of fate
In defiance of a God that I know doesn't know me
I stay awake, even as the world is fading away
Through the pain I hold on - I refuse to die!
I have struggled before, and I will struggle again
Lived through worse, I won't die while I'm on the mend
Through the pain I see
My life belongs to me!
On borrowed time, I have to try
To make a life, I won't regret
Despite the pain, I will survive
I will not die - won't let you take me now!
Still my heart beats
By the skin of my teeth - I am still alive
