Her Last 5 Minutes

Must have been a week

Since she drew the curtains down

I don't know if it's night or day

And I dont' care

Our hopes seem so bleak

But she's pulling through somehow

While I'm trembling in dismay

In despair

I can see you're scared and tired of all this

I can see the torment, the damage it has done

Still we both know what the other alternative is

Not yet the only one

The good moments are brief

And there's nothing I can do

When it comes haunting her again

And turns it worse

She shivers like a leafe

As the waves of pain heave through

The ruthless bringer of the end

Fierce, perverse

I can see you're scared and tired of all this

I can see the torment, the damage it has done

Still we both know what the other alternative is

Not yet the only one

Don't go yet

Don't go yet

Not yet, my only one

Don't go yet

I can't let go

Not yet, my only one
