Borrowed Time

So filled with fear that I couldn't speak Seeing you lifeless has left me weak I now collapse next to you on the floor I beg you you wake up, I can't take anymore This cannot be happening, its so surreal I'm helpless, this numbness. I cannot feel I feel I'll never be the same It kills me to see all your pain This boy now learns to be a man Even if he doesn't understand This nightmare's become all to real A loss too great to ever heal Now it's time to face the facts All your fears become unmasked The tension's rising, I feel I've lost all control You fought a battle but death has claimed your soul You have fought so valiantly But now it's time for your soul to be set free Don't try to hide, don't try to stay In the end you owe me nothing I must let you go Taken from me. Lost to me now I'll find the strength to rise from this somehow I just wanted you to know Warnings unheeded led to your demise As sad as it seems, there was no surprise I gave you the guidance, I gave you the rope The choices you made were not what I hoped Now there is an illness, a sickness in you There's nothing to stop this God damn it you fool I feel I'll never be the same It kills me to see all your pain This boy now learns to be a man Even if he doesn't understand This nightmare's become all to real A loss too great to ever heal Now it's time to face the facts All your fears become unmasked The tension's rising, I feel I've lost all control You fought a battle but death has claimed your soul You have fought so valiantly But now it's time for your soul to be set free Don't try to hide, don't try to stay In the end you owe me nothing I must let you go Taken from me. Lost to me now I'll find the strength to rise from this somehow I just wanted you to know
