We colonize a better place
(Unable to transform our fate)
We follow whatever path grows
(Directions no one knows)
Given the choice for normalcy
You seem content in who you've come to be
They said he re-installed his plague
(Said to have re-vamped that limp vein)
As if it all ends formulaic
(Painless escape)
We share the same virus of love and hope
And it's a fleeting beauty
You did everything you could
You were there for him through bad and good
So disappear before you follow suit
The parasites, they are still there to swallow you
Beating through an obtrude chest
Every emotive plea's a stretch
No praise enough to build a life
(No words to instill pride)
And through your life disorder rides
I did everything I could
Mostly there for him through bad and good
I disappeared as always waiting for the born-again call
The one that signals to us all
This bender's over again
Listen for one last faint heartbeat
(Holding his hand in hopes he breathes)
All of those sad years have come to this
(Your head lay on his sunken chest)
The thought of you at his deathbed
The latest virus in my head
Unjust, unjust
Selfless you tended to our ghost
Katherine an unconditional untiring host
Well you were there for him when he needed you the most
I hope someone restores your heart
I hope something restores your world
