It was always so incredibly intense Love and hate so close to each other Break up one day, then make up the next One day ignore, the next you'd smother You'd often slap me when you were in a rage Shouting and swearing in front of my mates One day i snapped and pushed you back hard Just gave you an excuse to intensify your hates This time it's over you'd told me so often But this time you'd held a secret from me A child, our baby, was growing inside you But your hate was there for all to see We'd often split up, got together again But this time you couldn't wait Booked yourself in at the hospital And there you sealed its fate No mention to me till after the deed And then you broke the news "You've lost me and your baby" Intensifying and heightening my blues She'd plunged a fist in my chest and twisted my heart The pain was too much to bear Then one morning I decided to do myself in I hated my life, it was so unfair Just sat in my garage inside my car Engine running and windows wide open Smoking cigarettes and thinking of what might have been I'd lost it I just wasn't coping I sat there and welcomed death To ease the incredible pain I felt from losing my baby Grim reapers sweet refrain In my crazy intense world, I totally forgot My mother, my father and the pain that they'd feel As they too lost there baby for no rhyme or reason No second chances and no appeal I'm not sorry of the decision to take my own life but to my parents I infinitely regret Nobody should have to bury their children To them I owe a huge debt One day in the future we'll all meet again And there I can show them my child Then they will see the joy that it brings The baby, the life, their grandchild

Too much too young
It was always so incredibly intense Love and hate so close to each other Break up one day, then make up the next One day ignore, the next you'd smother You'd often slap me when you were in a rage Shouting and swearing in front of my mates One day i snapped and pushed you back hard Just gave you an excuse to intensify your hates This time it's over you'd told me so often But this time you'd held a secret from me A child, our baby, was growing inside you But your hate was there for all to see We'd often split up, got together again But this time you couldn't wait Booked yourself in at the hospital And there you sealed its fate No mention to me till after the deed And then you broke the news "You've lost me and your baby" Intensifying and heightening my blues She'd plunged a fist in my chest and twisted my heart The pain was too much to bear Then one morning I decided to do myself in I hated my life, it was so unfair Just sat in my garage inside my car Engine running and windows wide open Smoking cigarettes and thinking of what might have been I'd lost it I just wasn't coping I sat there and welcomed death To ease the incredible pain I felt from losing my baby Grim reapers sweet refrain In my crazy intense world, I totally forgot My mother, my father and the pain that they'd feel As they too lost there baby for no rhyme or reason No second chances and no appeal I'm not sorry of the decision to take my own life but to my parents I infinitely regret Nobody should have to bury their children To them I owe a huge debt One day in the future we'll all meet again And there I can show them my child Then they will see the joy that it brings The baby, the life, their grandchild
