I'm half alive and yet I'm half dead
No consciousness lurks inside my head
These eyes lack any vision or clarity
These ears hear silence engulfing me
Body movements are now automated
No suicidal thoughts left contemplated
All my life force and free will disposed
No pleasure or painful emotions imposed
Awake and asleep exist one in the same
Identity absent, I will respond to a name
Ethics won't allow you to lock me away
So locked up inside myself I must stay
