Dead Man

I felt like a dead man
A shadow of my former self
Caught up in a whirlwind
Of bloodshot eyes and failing health
Got lost in fading cities,
Poor judgement and self pity
I felt like a dead man
A dead man

I felt like a dead man
A shell of what i used to be
One tired and distant
Dark mind so desperate for sleep
Got lost in nights as i fought
Demons on moonlit sidewalks
I felt like a dead man
A dead man

Like a shadow in the dark
Looking for the parts that belong where it bled
Like a shadow in the dark
Looking for the parts gone missing from my chest

Exhausted heavy breathing
Alcohol, lack of sleeping
Same pattern keeps repeating
This damn life is slowly killing me
