Mind Maze
My thoughts can't escape my head
Can't escape what I thought
Just trying to unthread
The mysteries I've been taught
Is it really what I think
Is it what I think I know
Time stands still when I blink
My eyes open just for show
My brain telling my lungs to breathe
And my heart to pump oxygen
Out of body experience I leave
But now I'm in a coma again
Lost and frozen I'm embalmed
Still alive but considered dead
Even though my mind has calmed
I think back to what I heard said
As I tried for one final breath
Lost in a permanent malaise
1145 estimated time of death
Trapped forever in my mind maze
Can't escape what I thought
Just trying to unthread
The mysteries I've been taught
Is it really what I think
Is it what I think I know
Time stands still when I blink
My eyes open just for show
My brain telling my lungs to breathe
And my heart to pump oxygen
Out of body experience I leave
But now I'm in a coma again
Lost and frozen I'm embalmed
Still alive but considered dead
Even though my mind has calmed
I think back to what I heard said
As I tried for one final breath
Lost in a permanent malaise
1145 estimated time of death
Trapped forever in my mind maze
