Cognitive Eclipse

Paralysed, eyes fixed upon
This end of a life
Nightmarish, the spectre remains
And so shall I
And so shall I

As the world continues to turn
I am dragged ever forward
Caught in the vessels of time
I am forced to watch her die
To watch her die

Irrational, unreachable
Inside this fragile mind
Nothing but a shadow
To be kept alive

Still the world continues to turn
Nothing will ever change

I cannot save her
Fate to collapse
I cannot leave her
Heartbeat weakening
Consciousness fading
Dying eyes carve into me

This is just irrational, unreachable (unreachable)
Inside this fragile mind (this fragile mind)
Nothing but a shadow
To be kept alive
Irrational, unreachable (inside)
Inside this fragile mind (this fragile mind)
Nothing but a shadow (alive)
To be kept alive
Kept alive

As the world continues to turn
I am dragged ever forward
Caught in the vessels of time (endless time)
I am forced to watch her die

Heartbeat weakening
Consciousness fading
