Cards On the Window (version two)

cards on the window
flowers in a vase
a girl in a bed
with a child like face

the monitors beep
the oxygen flows
her pulse is weak
her bones all show
she hadnet eaten in so long
she puked everyday
she knew it was wrong
but saw no other way
she cut up her wrist
to add to the pain
clenching her fist
in fear and disdane
but her body couldnt take it
and so it gave up
she fainted in class
and wouldnt wake up

cards on the window
flowers in a vase
a girl in a bed
with a child like face

now a nurse checks her vitals
he boyfriend holds her hand
a few friends are there
near he rthey stand
pain in their faces
fear in their eyes
tears fall,one paces
and all of them cry
outside the rain ours
a sad and gloom day
the church bells ring
and everyone prays
her bf whispers in her ear
telling her to hang on
with his voice full of fear
he hums her favorite song
thouggh in a coma she lies
he knows she can hear him
day after day
he watches his love

her heart doesnt beat
her blood doesnt flow
her wish came true
she finaly died
her life is through
shes in heaven now
but her bf cries
he starts to scream
the darkening skies
please let this be a dream
he grabs her hand
holds it tight
doesnt want ot let go
as the nurse tries cover her up
and take her away

the funneral arrives
her love just stands
wishing she were alive
as he breaks down and cries
in the rain by her grave
her true love remains
her, he couldnt have
but without her life wasnt the same
so he dug a hole
beside her grave
six feet down total
and he lay down

and cards on the wondow
flowers in a vase
an empty bed
with sheets of lace
