[hometext] => Ever wonder what it would be like to watch yourself die? (Like an out-of-body experience... raptors & vultures would be the medical staff)
[bodytext] => Raptors circle my lifeless form
I watch through hollow eyes Surreal, as if in slow motion No one hears my silenced cries Please let me go Just let me fly It will all end in the blink of an eye A translucent wraith watching from afar Tethered to this earth by a gilded chain As the vultures fight over my broken body I realize that I feel no pain Just let me go Please let me fly Let me bid this suffering good bye The longer I tarry and observe My shadow turns a lighter shade of gray The gilded chain grows thinner as time ticks slowly by I yearn for the severance of this chain, just let me fade away Please let me go Just let me fly This life will end with one last sigh Release ultimately arrives on wings ablaze The phoenix will rise again Lingering, I've become an apparition The Reaper has sown me, Amen.
