Anesthesia Awareness Lyrics

A routine procedure
The doctor assured you
Still uneasy but acceptant
That it must be done

You're prepped and put on the table
You're given gas and told to count
Backwards from one hundred
Until suddenly you're out

You're suddenly jolted
Awake in incredible pain
Hazy but suddenly aware that
your voice can not complain

Your heart rate races out of control
And the doctors try to stabilize
But all efforts seem to fail
Stability fails to reprise

Resuscitative efforts fail
You suffer cardiac arrest
One final time your lungs exhale
Soon after you are laid to rest
