| I was frightened | |
| By your suffering | |
| Fear is poison | |
| Faith the remedy | |
| But it didn't heal you | |
| So how could it help me | |
| I felt useless | |
| You stared but couldn't see me | |
| Growing distant | |
| You were slowly burning out | |
| But your cry for mercy | |
| Was stuck inside me, oh | |
| No enlightenment | |
| No anaesthetic | |
| No last remission | |
| No miracle reprieve | |
| I'm still a child beside you | |
| How did we come to be | |
| Inside this helpless moment | |
| Oluwa shanu mi | |
| Wa shanu mi | |
| I bring my thoughts back to you | |
| They are framed in broken light | |
| Your hands full of compassion | |
| The war that took your life | |
| So hard to remove the pain from | |
| The pure love you gave me | |
| Can you tell me you're not hurting anymore | |
| A waking dream, a sign to reassure | |
| Cause your last words I heard clearly | |
| You were crying for mercy | |
| No enlightenment | |
| No anaesthetic | |
| No last remission | |
| No miracle reprieve | |
| I'm still a child beside you | |
| How did we come to be | |
| Inside this helpless moment | |
| Oluwa shanu mi | |
| Wa shanu mi |
