When I Woke Again
[Small intro] [Verse 1 - Pained] Opened my eyes to walls painted white, hospital beds surrounding me. Each day a slow procession, the silence only broken by the sound of machines. Isolated in a room that felt more like a prison than a place of healing. [Verse 2 - Enthralled] She entered softly one morning, light as a shadow, calm and adorning. Her hair like a cascade of warm brown streams, breaking through my solitude, filling my dreams. Her voice, a soothing melody, swept through the room, lifting the gloom. Together we talked, and laughter would bloom, finding a refuge from our shared doom. [Small break] [Chorus - poignant] We spoke from dawn to dusk, a world within these walls, Shared whispered hopes beneath the long, shadowy halls. Two souls intertwined, yet fate hadn't yet spoken, Our bond was pure, unassuming, yet unbroken. [Verse 3 - Panicked] The morning she didn’t appear, her chair stood empty, an unspoken void filled the room. Anxiety crept in, a silent fog, as I wheeled through the corridors, each turn amplifying my fear. With each empty room, my heart grew heavier, the weight of her absence a tangible pressure. Then a scream shattered the silence, urgent and sharp, pulling me toward a growing crowd. I pushed through, each face blurred by my urgency, until I reached the window that framed the chaos. [Instrumental - Build up] [Break] [Bridge - Terrified] Fighting through the crowd, heart pounding, Reached the window, fear mounting. Gazed into a void so deep it seemed to pull me in, Everything went black, a fall into the unknown. [Chorus - Empty] I saw nothing but black, the void screamed back, Lost in the silence, the universe off track. Screams turned to whispers, in the blink of a night, I awoke again, in my room, to the morning light. [Instrumental] [Outro - Forlorn] Night after night, the dream repeats, Waking up in sweat, tangled in the sheets. Searching for a face, a phantom that may never appear again, Left with the echo of her voice, the memory of when. [Instrumental Fade out]
