The last few weeks have been a haze Nothing could prepare us for your last days We were told there was nothing they could do And that cancer would take you Denial and acceptance, hand in hand Life slips through my fingers like grains of sand Lost hopelessly Hell's taunting me I pray that dawn will never come Don't slip away with the rising Sun The night sets in, devoured by fear Erasing time, to keep you here Is hope just a fantasy? I'm petrified by the apathy Will I learn to live with grief haunting me? Lost hopelessly Hell's taunting me Hell's taunting me I pray that dawn will never come Don't slip away with the rising Sun The night sets in, devoured by fear Erasing time, to keep you Lay here, we're all beside you Stay here, let love guide you Lay here, we're all beside you Stay here, let love guide you As you ascend I'm left to reflect I'm grateful for the torment in retrospect I pray that dawn will never come Don't slip away with the rising Sun The night sets in, devoured by fear Erasing time, to keep you here Lay here, we're all beside you (To keep you here) Stay here, let love guide you (To keep you here) Lay here, we're all beside you (To keep you here) Stay here, let love guide you Lay here, we're all beside you
