She said she'd stick with him
Until the very end
He believed what she said
When she said that she would
For better or for worse
That was the oath decreed
Two years later divorced
'cause of speed
Pull through, work it out
They all cried
To no avail
To no surprise
Two calloused hearts
Could no longer try
Although loved and supported
She continued to die
By her choice
All alone
Her drug addiction
Has destroyed the home
She lived her own life
By her own greed and will
Death's grip enslaves her
And flaunts the kill
Husband left staring at her sunken face
He weeps to himself:
"I showed her no grace
I had every chance to swallow my pride
And tell her how beautiful she was inside"
What have I now but memories
Death's taken the wife given to me
We're both alone
None to blame now
She's gone and the sadness turns to pain
I'll never be the same
