I lay on my bed trying to sleep
But sleep refused to come
My thoughts were on you and what I had done
You were no longer with me because I killed you

I lay crying and wondering
Wondering what would have happened if you had not pushed me out of the way
You took the bullet to the chest and I lay on the floor with your head in my lap
I am so sorry you had to die

It is all my fault my love and I will never forget it
I should have died that day not you
I lay awake my mind unsettled
so please baby forgive me for I wish you were laying here with me

Finally sleep comes and I fall asleep to dream
I awake in a room with bars on the windows and steel door
Then I remember I was in a institution locked away with my grief
Locked away to live my life in grief

You lay in a dark cold grave
Tears stream down my face
You would still be alive if I had been taken just as I was suppose to
But you were a hero and saved my life
