A Deadly Wish

The clock struck midnight
The leaves were old
The leaves had fallen off
A dangerous place to be on a night like this

Will the monsters ever come out to play?
I must await their judgment patiently
Those enigmas are trying to tell me
Tell me what's inside my head

Things that they never explained to me
Things that didn't have to exist
But should I scream, should I weep
Or do I just make my fist?

Just one human, dead within itself
Tried destroying everything that never healed
It used that machine, that lovely machine
Makes the job so simple, and all are obsolete
I wish that boy could see me now
I wish that boy could see me now

I was asleep, inside my mind
Naked, vulnerable and blind
The vessel I traveled in
Was never part of my life
A silent screech
A silent screech
I long to return, but fear I may have
Tried too many times
I long to return, but fear I changed
Too many lives with him

Ah, he sees me
I'm soaking in this chair
I'm numb, strapped to a bed
I'm hanging from my neck

And yes, you who see only this
Never fixed me up
Listened, but never heard what I said
Now, you terrorist
Now, you get your wish
Now, you will see me dead
