You’re Not Ready – Victims Aren’t We All

We spend our whole lives trying to stop death
Eating, inventing, loving, praying, fighting, killing
But what do we really know about death, just that
Nobody comes back

It lasted all night long
The nurse stopped and she told me
Relax kid you’ll be alright
Every thing will be okay

Wait don’t leave
Without saying good-bye
Without saying good-bye

Don’t cry little sister now
Hold tight, promise to be strong
Just mask it down deep inside
And pretend that nothing’s wrong

I’m sorry mother for what your boy’s become and
Please forgive me father cause your son has forgot how to love

Wait don’t leave
Without saying good-bye
Without saying good-bye
Wait please stay
You’re not ready to fly
You’re not ready to fly

There comes a point in life
A moment when your mind outlives
Its desires, its obsessions
When your habits survive your dreams

When your heart stops
It keeps from beating
Your skin goes cold
And you stop breathing

Wait don’t leave
Without saying good-bye
Without saying good-bye
Wait please stay
You’re not ready to die
You’re not ready to die
