Living Will (Get You Dead)

Loved Ones (The)
(album: Keep Your Heart)

all alone again
he woke up screaming here
he needs more oxygen to breathe
help him up hold him down
like a freight train
it´s bearing down again
he´s got holy water in his lungs
help him up

if that´s how it´s gonna be
wake me up wake me up
pump me full of meds
don´t let me drink from that cup
slide a little pill down my throat
i´ll try to keep it down
or pull my plug and don´t be frightened by the sound

seventy and ten
outlived the best of men
he wants to see his little kids again
help him up
but in all his years
the pain´s never been this severe
now he´s spiraling in fear
hold him down

if that´s how it´s gonna be
wake me up wake me up
pump me full of meds
don´t let me drink from that cup
slide a little pill down my throat
i´ll try to keep it down
or pull my plug and don´t be frightened by the sound
