Between rage and sorrow
We sense approaching death
The drugs put him to sleep
He's conscious less and less

He will come back to us, God will not abandon
I gave him life, and I won't see my pride and joy slip away

I know that I hide alone
But I will never leave you
I wouldn't have you take this path
Of what I'll soon become

Please--sitting in corners alone
Please come back to me
No--trust in the gift of life
He will pass on in the night

I hope that I may be wrong
God will relieve thosewith faith
Please--I will not give up on you
I'm bracing myself for the storm

Storm! I will not yield! I know that you would pray
But no prayers will sound while that thing is still around

I just can't take it all, this constant hate and fear
Like a snake that circles round and round
and feasts upon itself

I know that you two butt heads, but can't you let that rest?
My son is dying here and still you can't but difference aside?

Will you consider my words?
I just want to be alone
How can we deal with this shit?
You've already danced with death
We could go on in shifts
There's no sense dealing with him
Trust--how can I trust in you people?
It is your only choice

Madness--can I be set free?
No more--now show yourself
Selfish--picking on my brother's wife
Stop now--his poor love
Cold bitch--just leave her alone!
Please, now! Everything's ending
Snide jabs--leave the girl alone!
Michael!

It's good that my brother can't see

Solo: Josh

Now--watching the strength in her heart
Tolerance comes to an end
Now you can see why I left
Stories have come to life
A glimpse into broken minds
Everyone carries burdens
But don't let it fester in you

I know that it's my sacrifice
