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 Each 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 though 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 one I knew That could tame me and make me who I am But now, it's all fading, 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 though 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 happened These words of mine are trite and so cliché And still they find their place in everything It's just to break the silence that has been crushing me Half of me is dead, already gone And half is screaming everyone is wrong I'm finally asking now will you Just hear me out This was all my fault Now you've brought me death And it's everything I wanted It's the wrong side of fear that kept me out
