Here's my 16 bars--- Good luck Colossus---

I awoke perplexed, vexed to be at rest in a hospital berth.
In the next room I heard the doctor as he spoke of death.
I felt the hex of hopeless, potent, as it soaked within,
knowin' the collision musta killed one of my kin.

<flashback> Last night, as my family and I were on our ride home,
some drunk guy struck my blind side with his Rolls.
As we rolled my life flashed fast past my inner eye's sight,
'till it froze on a vivid image of my folks present fright.
I was livid and rivers of tears flowed from the windows of my soul,
then my spark a' life's glow withered and the dark took hold. </flashback>

I will never forgive him who did this if my fam dies,
I wanna sever the life of that damn devil in disguise.
I slowly rise to get upright, but no one's here to hold my hand,
so I bite my upper lip and fight the pain I'm up against to stand.
I hobble to the open door and step into the corridor,
but I can't keep my balance, so I fall and hit the floor.

Then my gramps hand reaches down to hoist me up,
he holds me in a hug while his voice expresses love.
Then he steps back, looks into my eyes with a melancholy vast,
and in anguish he then tells me he had caused the crash.
Love and hate mix as his words jab my heart like a fist.
I can't take this! So I limp away, my heart ripped from my chest.

In the room to the left, there's my mother layin' stiff,
so I lunge to her side but she's as silent as death.
I scream in a fret, but then I see a single tear manifest,
followed by a solemn stream pourin' out with every breath.
I lay my head in her hands to try to ease her pain,
then she gasps, opens her eyes, and calls out my name.

I hear a quiet foot step into the room,
an exhale, then a voice spoke in reverent tone,
“I'm sorry ma'am but there's nothing we could do,
neither your son nor your dad suffered and they aren't alone.”
