...and Their Eulogies Sang Me to Sleep.

All I heard was the sound of fish who'd drowned

All I saw was the inside of my eyelids

All I said fell short of reaching open

Words floating, clouding the view

See no, hear no,speak no evil

Leaves you deaf dumb and blind

Because the bad is all you'll find

A deeply heart-felt goodbye

to part to the part of me that died.

When I decided to put others before me

Yes my heart felt asleep-boredom and fatigue

I always said I wanted to die smiling

To pretend I'm at peace

Now from my corpse beams a frigid, black grin

Like a lullaby to a cradle

Is the eulogy to the casket

All my flaws swept under the table

To grieve the porcelain doll that was me

Their solemn songs sang me to sleep as my body escaped me

(2x)

Such a shameful masquerade!

Floating frozen minutes on display

Why is evolution such a shameful thing so say?

Can you feel you'r bodily decay?

Because I sure as Hell feel my brain going blank,

if my body betrays me, there's pollution to thank.

This condition infects my cells like it controls my mind

Internal Army, defend me behind enemy lines!

Fragile vehicle of mine!

Don't abandon me yet!

There is so much to live for

That we so easily forget!

Fascinati on with the fear

The concept escapes me

All encompassing fate

How it wrenches our hearts

Torments our souls

And sings us all to sleep

To an eternal keep

No matter what beliefs

It sweetly sings us all
