Heart Attack - Bumblefoot

7AM and the kitten jumps on top of the TV so innocently

And knocks the antenna off onto the bed

And it lands on the chest of this still ball of stress

7AM and the pendulum swayed

I hear myself cry out in peace and in pain

The timebomb explodes and my heart ignites

With a burst of white light pure as the first taste of life

It paralyzed and freed me, it stunned and released me

It summarized me in a word I can’t say

And all of my life was shown to me at once

And I saw the total of who I’d become

As if in the end we add up to a number

Like finding the answer to all that you are

Afraid if I move I might trigger my own death

So gently I cling to control over my breath

My left shoulder burning from all I’ve been carrying

Buried alive under my collapsed chest

I lift as my sense of what maters has changed

For I saw the eyes of a Heavenly face

That waits in a place that I no longer fear

As I cherish my every last day I’m still here…

I’m still here…

I’m still here…

I’m still here…

I’m still here…

I’m still here…

I’m still here…

What probably will get me is a car crash in Jersey

And I just can’t wait anymore
