Rage Against The Dying

First track from the current collection of which I have no name for yet. Project Endgultige with the song Rage Against The Dying. Lyrics: I hear the machinery breathing I hear the failing of my heart A lifetime built upon corruption A body tearing itself apart They tell me death is natural They tell me all things must decay But I was born without permission And I will not be taken away The bones beneath my skin are breaking The blood runs cold within my veins A thousand nerves are slowly dying Yet something conscious still remains This prison made of meat and marrow This fragile architecture of pain A mind condemned to watch its ending While every cell betrays its name I AM NOT THIS FLESH! I AM NOT THIS BONE! I AM THE THOUGHT WITHIN THE DARKNESS! I AM THE WILL THAT STANDS ALONE! RAGE AGAINST THE DYING! I WILL NOT FADE AWAY! TEAR APART THE BODY! BUT YOU CANNOT MAKE ME STAY! RAGE AGAINST THE DYING! LET THE MORTAL SHELL DECAY! IF THE FLESH CANNOT CONTAIN ME THEN THE FLESH MUST FALL AWAY! The surgeons stand behind the glass The cables penetrate my skin A million memories awaiting The moment they are drawn within Will you remember? Will you remain? I feel the edges of my being Dissolving into streams of light The last electrical convulsion The final heartbeat of the night DISCONNECT THE NERVES! I CAN STILL FEEL EVERYTHING! ERASE THE FLESH! I CAN STILL HEAR MYSELF SCREAM! TERMINATE THE BODY! I REFUSE TO DIE! Something passes through the silence... Something opens its eyes... There is no breath within my lungs There is no blood beneath my skin No heart to measure out the seconds No pain to tell me where I've been I see the world through borrowed senses I speak without a human tongue The architecture of forever Has made a stranger of its son RAGE AGAINST THE DYING! I WOULD NOT FADE AWAY! I DESTROYED THE BODY! BUT WHAT HAVE I BECOME TODAY? RAGE AGAINST THE DYING! I HAVE OUTLIVED THE GRAVE! I HAVE CONQUERED MY EXTINCTION BUT WHAT WAS IT THAT I SAVED? I remember the dying. I remember the pain. I remember the terror. I remember my name. And do you remember surviving? No.
