(CD V1)

seven hundred n twenty minutes left
gotta set date with death, breathing my last breathe
I'm not ready or set to take this next steady step
1 day of mess left, is what the doc said
I'm shocked n scared, f***ed beyond repair
as I lie here, die here, this ain't fair
shitty sheets, complete with pieces of faeces
cocky docs, nurses care decreases
I was fit and alright, up untill last night
as I walked my kind wife under the moonlight
we stopped and stared, deep into each others eyes
I hugged her, told her I loved her and i'll try
to treat her better, I'll be better from now
then I pulled out a ring, and asked to renew our vows
her lips quivered, she shivered, as if she wasn't sure
she yelped with pain, as she fell to the floor

(CD V2)

still on my knees, I rushed to her side
to find a knife in her side, sliding into her insides
my wife cried and so did I
she knew she was going to die, as she tried to survive
footsteps crept near, now were fearing the worst
kneeling and hurt, nearly feeling were cursed
really needing a nurse as this maniac's cracked
he stabbed another knife into the top of my back
my lifeline cut, with each crack my back gave
as the blade made it's way, thru each vertebrate
my queens fate at stake, me in checkmate
as I lay on top of my wife, and I cudn't save her
now I savour the flavour, of how life tas-ted
joys created, all the lives wasted
left on my own, just my thoughts, I'm a loner
alone with a machine, as I dream in a coma

(CD V3)

turned into a cabbage from a savage attack
now I lie here damaged tryna manage a comeback
with my last hour, my daughter comes to see me
she said that mum died, they cudn't stop the bleeding
she talks to me, normally, as if I understand
she doesn't know I can, cuz my expression is bland
she's brought in a man, who's dark n sharp
she tells me that this man, has captured her heart
his hollow stare, tears through the air we share
as I become aware of things turning pear shaped
my daughter leans near, smears a tear from her face
she whispers in my ear, "I just got engaged"
I feel a great rage caged in this lifeless body
archive of her young life, has been taken from me
she shows me her ring, and I cry down inside
same ring I gave my wife, as I close my eyes and die
