If you wake up after going to sleep, why shouldn't you wake up after dying?

The first sense that recovered was my sense of hearing. And there was a lot to hear.
The first thing I could hear was music. It wasn't loud but it was there. Some piano piece, silently playing away in the background. That sound was disturbed by regular, also rather quiet, beeping noises.
Beep.
Beep.
Beep.
"The prisoner's vital signs are suggesting that they are waking up. Medical assistance recommended. Mr. Stark will be informed about the change."
A voice. Not completely human. Must have been a machine, a robot maybe.
English. I was German. Why was the stranger speaking English?
Worst was, I'd heard that voice before and it hadn't been long ago.
Beep.
Beep.
Beep.
Had that been ... ?
It couldn't.
Beep.
Beep.
Beep.
I remembered not turning off the TV. Iron man.
Yeah, it probably was JARVIS. I was still home. I'd watched the movie in English. Everything was fine.
Something had happened.
Beep.
Beep.
Beep.
After the sudden return of my hearing ability, my nose decided to do me the favour of regaining function too.
It smelled sterile. Like in a hospital. The sharp odour of disinfectants and the absence of smells that indicated life were harsh and overwhelming. I felt like coughing but not like I'd manage to do that.
Beep.
Beep.
Beep.
Hospital.
I remembered the disgusting cat countdown. I remembered slipping. I remembered falling. I remembered hitting my head.
I must have been found.
I must be in a hospital.
An English one? Why?
Beep.
Beep.
Beep.
I felt weak.
And then I realised that I could feel soft fabric against my palms and a soft cushion under my head and the warmth of clothes and the comfort of a matrass.
