Steel-torn flesh

 Glass-crushed skull

 Flat-line brain wave

 Respirated breathing

 Comatose and abandoned

 Reduced to patient X

 No hope for life

 No way to die

 Modern medical miracles

 Condemned to living death

 Necrophilic experiment

 Pitied and repulsive

 Intravenous lifelines

 Devoid of human touch

 Flesh cannot atrophy

 Rigor mortis forestalled

 No sight No sound

 No feeling

 Confined to this hell

 Artificial light my beacon

 Engulfed in eternal night

 Electoronic pulse rate

 Force fed through a tube

 Life replaced by circuitry

 No need to think or breathe

 Numeric status readouts

 Monitoring vital signs

 (solo: Oster)

 Cybergod in command

 In control of my fate

 Not a shred of dignity

 Always probed and measured

 Wrapped in gauze and latex

 Fluids flowing in and out

 I must scream out loud

 But I have no mouth
