You've given up on life

You don't want to be here

Another day, a month, a year

You've given up on life

Those long years on your own

Eventually taken their toll

You've given up on life

Your body now decayed

Your mind senile with age

You've given up on life

That woman once so strong

Departed, defeated, gone

You've given up on life

No food will pass your lips

No water will you sip

You've given up on life

But now you've taken the reigns

To leave behind the pain

You've given up on life

In your hospital bed you lie

Just waiting, hoping to die.
