VII

I am not alone now
You’re lying next to me
But you’ve got very old now
And you’re dying I can see
You don’t know I’m with you
Diseased and deaf and blind
And although you can’t see me
There’s still sadness in your eyes
Because I know you remember
How it feels to be free
But for now and forever
In darkness you’ll be
Looking for me
I can’t believe you
Too sick to say goodbye
And when I come this way again
I won’t find you alive
Now I see your lips move
You’re praying for death
Here comes your answer
To seal up your breath
Oh no!
