| Time is running out as you die, die, die in this bed not making a sound.
|
| It has all come crashing down to be here, and watch you breathe your last.
|
| So helpless to stop you from slipping away so fast.
|
| Oh, God, are you listening now?
|
| As this cancer dances through her, and then takes a bow.
|
| It won’t disappoint the crowd,
|
| whose words are a curse,
|
| as I hear them one-by-one.
|
| Please pull the string, and I come undone.
|
| I know this. |
| I failed to say. |
| I’m sinking by your side.
|
| You’re worth this. |
| I wouldn’t trade a day to not have gone through this
|
| So many days I’ve been blind.
|
| I want to stop and rewind.
|
| Kick off our shoes and dance with the ghost of you.
|
| Who could tease me and leave me begging for the abuse?
|
| You’re the only I knew that could tame me, and make me who I am.
|
| But now, there’s self-blaming and there’s nothing left of all my plans.
|
| I know this. |
| I failed to say. |
| I’m sinking by your side.
|
| You’re worth this. |
| I wouldn’t trade a day to not have gone through this.
|
| So many days I’ve been blind.
|
| I want to stop and rewind.
|
| Kick off our shoes and dance.
|
| Let’s dance again.
|
| We’ll turn up our sleeves.
|
| I know just where to begin.
|
| Dance, let’s dance again.
|
| We could find ourselves before this happens…
|
| These words of mine are trite and so cliche.
|
| Still we find a place in everything.
|
| It’s just to break the silence that has been crushing me.
|
| Half of me is dead, already gone.
|
| Half is screaming everyone is wrong.
|
| Finally asking now, will you just hear me out?
|
| This was all my fault.
|
| You brought me death, and it’s everything I wanted.
|
| It’s the wrong side of fear that kept me out. |
