She said she'd stick with him,
Until the very end
He believed what she said,
When she said that she would

For better or for worse,
That was the oath decreed,
Two years later divorced 'cause of speed

Pull through,
Work it out,
They all cried,
To no avail,
To no surprise,
Two calloused hearts,
Could no longer try
Although loved and supported,
She continued to die

By her choice,
All alone
Her drug addiction,
Has destroyed the home
She lived her own life,
By her own greed and will,
Death's grip enslaves her,
And flaunts the kill

Husband left staring at her sunken face
He weeps to himself,

"I showed her no grace
I had every chance to swallow my pride,
and tell her how beautiful she was inside"

What have I now but memories,
Death's taken the wife given to me

We're both alone,
None to blame now,
She's gone
And the sadness turns to pain
I'll never be the same
