they watch but they do nothing
as i struggle to grab up your wounded body
your arm just keeps falling and falling
and mine aren't strong enough to lay you back down softly

and i don't wanna drop you
so i try to take the worst of the fall
i say it isn't fair
you say it's not my fault
i try to believe you
but you're already gone
you deserved better

you deserved it all
i never should've have promised
that it'd all be fine
i tested fate
to soften the fear in your eyes
rocking back and forth
i try to choke out a lullaby
cradling your earthly form
and you leaden before i could kiss you goodbye
whats wrong with you people
how could you just sit by
how could you be so numb to suffering
you'd just let somebody die
