Someone felt my pulse today
Someone pricked my toe
Someone said goodbye today
Or was it just hello?
Someone brought me flowers
Someone brought me hope
Someone took my showers
Someone stole my soap
And then I opened my eyes and saw that you had gone
It seems I’d been awake and lying all along
(all alone)
Someone read a book aloud
I knew the ending very well
Someone wished that all the clouds
Would finally go to hell
Someone checked if I was in
And diagnosed me wrong
Thought I heard a violin, guess
Someone stole my song
And then I opened my eyes and saw that you had gone
It seems I’d been awake and crying all along
(all alone)
Someone called a priest today
One who would invest
Someone made a beast of clay
And lay it on my chest
Someone said they saw a tear
Rolling down my cheek
Someone told me not to fear, that
I’d be out in a week (ha!)
And then I opened my eyes and saw that this was mine
It seems I’d been awake and dying all this time
And now they say I’m fine
They say I’m fine…
