Our new reality; IV therapy
Oh God, could you please just intervene
What will it take
To not have him taken from me
Can’t you see
How badly our family’s hurting?

This is not the end
I won’t let you go
I can’t let them take you
This hospital bed
Could it take me instead
Just take me instead

Take it back
The shame and the guilt
This sickness has no place
In what we’ve built
I’d kill to have time stand still
To rebuild what’s left
Of our broken will

If circumstances have cut us off
Trying to bare the burden
Of love and loss
My love for you is all I’ve got
And I’ll never let go
No matter the cost

This is not the end
I won’t let you go
I can’t let them take you
This hospital bed
Could it take me instead
Just take me instead

I won’t lose hope
We’ll make it through
Finding the closure to rebuild
These home truths
They hit harder in a home with you
It hits like a fucking train
Seeing you this way
Seeing you in pain
How can I feel empty
Be so weak
When you’re the one
Who needs me

All I feel is anger and sadness
Sadness
I need answers to understand
How this cancer ripped matters
From my family’s hands
Ripped from our hands

Ripped from our hands
Was this always the plan
I need to understand

This is not the end
I won’t let you go
I can’t let them take you

This is not the end
I won’t let you go
I can’t let them take you
This hospital bed
Could it take me instead
Just take me instead
I won’t lose hope
We’ll make it through
Finding the closure to rebuild
These home truths
They hit harder in a home with you
