Sterile Halls

Lyrics - me; Music Suno

[Verse 1]

Today are the same todays, as all days

My humanity's seemingly gone, robotic

Gliding down emotionless, sterile halls

To a room, a soul, now purely symbolic


[Verse 2]

The object before me, seems foreign

She's not the person I once knew

This object before me, is not she

Her essence, somewhere else flew


[Chorus]

Eyes of cloudy white sunken back

Fingers and lips are blueish black

Skin cold and ashen ghostly pale

Crystalized breath on every exhale


[Verse 3]

She's fighting through hunger pains

Stroke throat paralysis cannot feed

The docs want a tube, her eyes say no

A split-second choice, which to heed


[Verse 4]

Tube inserted, and her body responds

But not in the way everybody expected

Fueling undiscovered massive ulcers

Leaving myself, the staff, dejected


[Chorus]

Eyes of cloudy white sunken back

Fingers and lips are blueish black

Skin cold and ashen ghostly pale

Crystalized breath on every exhale


[Verse 5]

First bout at three, six then nine

White sheet fill with browns and reds

Pulse spikes, blood pressure drops

Passing phases of being alive and dead


[Verse 6]

The docs said they can make her whole

But the time is now, no time to wait

At that moment, should have let her go

In the doc's hands, I let decide her fate


[Chorus]

Eyes of cloudy white sunken back

Fingers and lips are blueish black

Skin cold and ashen ghostly pale

Crystalized breath on every exhale


[Outro]

Today are not the same todays, this is a new day

But not a glorious new day, no, it's surreal

I made a vow to be with her until the end

I watched as they cleaned and prepped her

Put her in a bag, and cart her away, forever

Down the same emotionless, sterile halls

I somberly walk down, now for the final time.
