Dr. Alexander's Lament

[Verse]
Mood swings sharp, scalpel in the dark,
Operating theater, minds fall apart,
Fingers tremble, heartbeatin' too loud,
Ghosts of patients, in the sterile shroud.
[Verse 2]
Lab coat heavy, burden of regret,
Sutures ain't mending wounds unmet,
Hallways echo, cries of the lost,
Every misstep tallying the cost.
[Chorus]
Dr. Alexander, heart's on the line,
Cutting through the pain, coursing through the spine,
Life in his hands, death's shadow close,
Silent moments scream, secrets they expose.
[Verse]
X-rays tinted, shadows on the glass,
Past mistakes, they never seem to pass,
Eyes bloodshot, memories in the night,
Dreams of saving, yet losing the fight.
[Verse 2]
Family portraits, dust on the shelf,
Healing others, can't heal himself,
Stethoscope whispers tales of despair,
Every breath he takes, feelin' the wear and tear.
[Chorus]
Dr. Alexander, mind's in a twist,
Heartbeats falter, moments he missed,
Life in his hands, death's shadow tight,
In the operating room, no end in sight.
