Do Not Resuscitate Me (Music Video)

By The Ronin Project · Metal · From the album Inside the Embers

I didn't come this far to beg

Didn't bleed this long to stall

Every scar I never hid

Every rise came with a fall

You call it saving what's left

I call it stealing from the end

If I've earned this final breath

Don't rewrite how it is spent

I didn't make this to turn away

I didn't come this far for safe

If this is how it ends for me

Then I'll meet it face to face

Do not resuscitate me

If I finally go down

Do not resuscitate me

Let the silence be loud

I do not want a fresh start

I do not want relief

If this is where it ends for me

Let it end with me

I didn't live like I was safe

I didn't move like I was spared

Every choice was mine to make

Every weight was mine to bear

You say it's not too late to turn

Like retreat is something clean

But I did not come to survive

If survival costs me everything

I didn't make this to turn away

I didn't come this far for safe

If this is how it ends for me

Then I'll meet it face to face

Do not resuscitate me

If I finally go down

Do not resuscitate me

Let the silence be loud

I do not want a fresh start

I do not want relief

If this is where it ends for me

Let it end with me

Every breath a choice I make

Don't turn resolve into regret

If this is the cost of legacy

Then this is the debt I accept

Do not resuscitate me

If I finally go down

Do not resuscitate me

Let the silence be loud

I do not want a fresh start

I do not want relief

If this is where it ends for me

Let it end with me

Do not resuscitate me

Do not resuscitate me
