Lyrics

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
