I am lingering between two dimension of reality and dream
Whoever knows the way to the immortal life?
I live in this world for I am coerced
Do I have a choice? Do I have my own free will?
No… because I am crippled, you amputate me
I can’t walk my way alone
But did you ever hear me whimper? Did you ever hear from me a single whine?
None… Because I am mute
I can’t utter a single word
Might not as well mimic my way to freedom
‘Coz that’ll be the most discreet yet the darkest form of escape
Perhaps I both love and hate music
I love the rhythm and the melody
Music has a life of its own
But why can’t I have one?
I am a lifeless, soulless being
I am dead
Yet I can hear the music
Still playing… still alive…
I can’t feel any pulse in me
I can’t hear my breath
I’ve already reached my expiration date
But can’t those restoration devices of your generation bring me back to life?
I am stiffening from cold
If you can’t revive me just lull me to sleep
Sing me a lullaby of misery
Read me a poem of death
And oh please give me some food to eat
I am suffering from hunger and thirst
I am craving for love and understanding
Give me heed will you?
For years you just fed me with hatred and vindication
Now is the time for sweet revenge
I cry no more, I cry no more
I am numb from sadness and pain
I have paved my way to immortality
And so you mortals bend those knees and pay the respect
The respect I never had when I am still the moron you used to know
Now I have the power
I can kill and condemn you for all I care!
But wait, wait…
I can’t laugh… I still can’t…
I am supposed to be happy
I am supposed to laugh like a villain in a movie
But still I feel so empty…
I am nothing… Still nothing…
Will you just lull me back to sleep?
Sing me a lullaby of love
Read me a poem of dreams
Send me back to the realm I belong
And once again…
Let me flash those grins
Let me shed those tears
Let me hear the music
Let me savor the silence
Let me feel the bliss and misery
Let me LIVE my LIFE as it is…
