Love-Induced Coma

Overdosed again
It's time for me to go and leave you
               alone
And you can only blame
               yourself

You broke me
          and stabbed me
                    and stomped my heart
                              into the ground again and again
But no more!

I am the Ocean!
I am the Wind!
I am Living Fire!
Darkness
     will
          not
               hurt
                    me

For all this time I've been dreaming
Dreaming of you
          wasted hopes!
                    wasted tears!

I called your name from inside my sleep
          did you hear me?
Now your hold is broken

I am the Earth!
I am the Soul!
I am Living Fire!
You
    won't
          hurt
               me
                  anymore

I awoke to these machines
               pumping life into me
                         breath, slow and rhythmic
And I unplugged them from my body
               I can now breathe on my own
     You were my drug of choice
                    and my withdrawls are over

          I have awakened
               from my love-induced coma!
