Clawing From Silence
(ahhhh) There is a cold hand on my shoulder.
But my blood is still warm.
Claustrophobic walls, the dirt in my mouth
(coughing sound) They tried to lock me in the quiet south But
the dark won't hold,
the dark won't keep
I refuse to fall asleep!
I died, but I never stopped breathing!
(never stopped!) Clawing through the concrete,
screaming!
Death is calling, but I run in spite
I will hold the light!
It drags at my heels,
a shadow in the room
(no!) Terrified of the silence,
terrified of the tomb
Pure rage in my veins,
a chemical fire
I won't join your choir!
(get away!) Drag me
down... But I crawl back up!
I died, but I never stopped breathing!
(never stopped!) Clawing through the concrete,
screaming!
Death is calling, but I run in spite
I will hold the light!
(shhhh) I never stopped breathing.
