5 ContributorsOne (Live / Seattle ’89) Lyrics [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I can't remember anything Can't tell if this is true or a dream Deep down inside I feel to scream This terrible silence stops me Now that the war is through with me I'm waking up, I cannot see That there's not much left of me Nothing is real but pain now [Chorus] Hold my breath as I wish for death Oh please, God, wake me [Verse 2] Back in the womb it's much too real In pumps life that I must feel But can't look forward to reveal Look to the time when I live Fed through the tube that sticks in me Just like a wartime novelty Tied to machines that make me be Cut this shit off from me [Chorus] Hold my breath as I wish for death Oh please, God, wake me [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] Now the world is gone, I'm just one Oh, God, help me Hold my breath as I wish for death Oh please, God, break me... Yeah! [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Darkness imprisoning me All that I see, absolute horror I cannot live, I cannot die Trapped in myself, body my holding cell Landmine has taken my sight Taken my speech, taken my hearing Taken my arms, taken my legs Taken my soul, left me with life in Hell, ha ha! Yeah! [Guitar solo] [Outro]
