Pull the Plug

Pull the Plug

A flashback
A flat line
a smile
a lie
a tear
a cry
no more hero in my sky...
and it ends.

The disenchanted emergency machines
sighed, gasped and beeped beside me
no where to run and no where to hide
so i sat alone, full of pain and cried.
and as my eyes drifted from the empty TV
I imagined my life pass on the screen
as with heartache inside i began to sing
Because i didn't remember a single thing
that was worth living for anyways
Oh what a tragic day...

And It was in that tragic day...
Oh it won't hurt is all they say
this was no routine hospital stay
no one ever thought I'd never leave
no one thought they'd ever grieve
How did everything suddenly go wrong?
When my life turned into a sad song
And he stayed by the bed all night long
but it was too late...i was already gone.

It was the day they pulled the plug on my life
All in vain were my aspirations, regret and strife
It was the day they pulled the plug on my heart
a few moments when my tears were quick and sharp
Then it was all over.

Ya...my life was just a sad song...
played and sung...then forgetten.
