What Sarah Said - Death Cab for Cutie

And it came to me then that every plan is a tiny prayer to father time

As I stared at my shoes in the ICU that reeked of piss and 409

And I rationed my breaths as I said to myself that I’d already taken too much

today

As each descending peak on the LCD took you a little farther away from me

Away from me

Amongst the vending machines and year-old magazines in a place where we only

say goodbye

Stung like a violent wind that our memories depend on a faulty camera in our

minds

And I knew that you were a truth I would rather lose than to have never lain

beside at all

And I looked around at all the eyes on the ground as the TV entertained itself

'Cause there’s no comfort in the waiting room

Just nervous pacers bracing for bad news

And then the nurse comes round and everyone will lift their heads

But I’m thinking of what Sarah said that «Love is watching someone die»
