I always thought it would be me
In the hospital
Waiting to know the verdict

I always knew it would be me in pain
Crying
Wishing that everything hadn't been real

And in the end, I was
I was the one being held while I cried
I wasn't going to die
And the pain wasn't mine to be concerned with
But I always knew it would be me
That braced to loose someone I loved

I always knew someone I loved would decide they had had enough
I didn't think it would be you
But it was
And I'm sorry

Because I always thought it would be me in the hospital
Found too late
With my family saying their final goodbyes
Wishing it wasn't true
And not understanding why

But we weren't too late
I saw the panic
And the pain
And the rush with which everyone responded because they cared
They cared!
They listened to the plea
They called bullshit on the "I'm fines"
And you weren't lost

And that is all that matters
