Alive Again

I wanna seek the entire universe for a Vimana Machine
One with a shiny Tesla Coil that shimmers and gleams 

I'd jump to a variety of dates in my distant past
To save a handful of important people - faster than the Flash

I'd have to give up something - so sentimental to me
But I'd give up ANYTHING to be able to see them breathe

Everyone who's ever crossed my path has left - or is dead
And everyone I love that's gone, cannot fix this empty dread

I'll never again be the same - they were all pieces of me
If you try and debate why they SHOULD be dead - I won't agree

I don't care who I'd lose along the way to saving them
I don't care - as long as they're alive and breathing again

So much they've impacted - on my entire life
Taking away - but also causing my pain and strife

Everyone in your life - even family - is terribly temporary
But when everyone you've ever loved is dead - it gets scary

Anything of myself was in them - and now they're gone
And when they decided to kill themselves - I was taken along

I was cursed to be here - organizing the pieces left of them
The grieving process never started - and now will never begin

My lost pieces were obliterated with them when they died
I've given all my pieces to them so I have emptiness inside

So as of now this is all but just a silly dream -
Trying to seek the entire universe for a flying Vimana Machine
