She said follow me
I'll show you to the family room
The family room
I been there before
A couple of chairs
A sink and the lights are kept dim
Plenty of tissue and I think soundproof

The family room
Where the doctor begins with I'm sorry, we did everything we could
As the chaplain stands behind him
Bible in hand waiting to ask if he can pray for you  Feeling your breath being took
****** and hurt
Yelling in shock out of fear
All the noises you would expect from the family room


The family room
Where some family comforts one another
For others it's the beginning of becoming strangers
Never come out the same as when you went in
Makes time seem as worthless as you feel
Steals a part of all who enter
Makes you cuss the heavens
And question life
Makes you pray to the Lord
And reevaluate your life
The family room
Where many promises are made then forgotten

The family room
Sits unused till the next family gets the news
The Famly Room
