A life that no one ever asked for
Do my best to make them happy, but they always want more
The demons I bow to control the fates of these beings I adore
I'll make the best of it, I'll be the best for them
Shower all of them with love until our time comes to an end
A dark fateful end
In darkness, I promised I'd be your light
There's things you can't understand
I know they're not all right
Take my hand, say farewell
You've lived a gracious life
Sleep well on your last night
To get so attached, is a dangerous game
See their hearts drop as we talk through that gate
I do all I can just to remember their smiles
Yet I always turn away as the life drains from their eyes
I'm their demise
I love them, I hope that they know this
As I send them away, they look hopeless
In darkness, I promised I'd be your light
There's things you can't understand
I know they're not all right
Take my hand, say farewell
You've lived a gracious life
Sleep well on your last night
I know what you're feeling
I've lost someone too
This was never the vision I had for myself
It will have to do
I've seen what is out there
I promise I'm doing what I believe is best
There's no need to suffer, please just rest
('Cause mom knows best)
In darkness, I promised I'd be your light
There's things you can't understand
I know they're not all right
Take my hand, say farewell
You've lived a gracious life
Sleep well on your last night
