Troubles mound and you're longing for home
Calling the nurse cause you're feeling alone
These are the tragic times, no way out

The doctor enters the room, is it time?
His troubled face gives you all the signs
But the answer holds you back from tearful eyes

You've been reaching for the bright light since this morning, go tonight

The mother still holds on, though her heart is broken now
The father is gone, it makes you want to know, just scream out loud

One last goodbye, a trooper seeks his home
A last breath of life and soon you're on your own
One last goodbye, now you see it clear
Disappointment running through you, now the end is near
