hile the bathtub slowly is filling up
she downs her pills with a glass of red wine
she tests the water to make sure it's fine
somewhere she'd read it must not be too hot
resting her head on a bath pillow she'd brought
she's all set for her bath - peaceful and quiet
she reaches out for the razor blade knife
as soon as she feels the numbness set in
she's overcoming
all pretence and disguise
she's overcoming
his deceptions and lies
and she's hearing music
wonderful, beautiful music
now, that she's joining the angels' choir
she is fascinated by billowing clouds
that soon begin col'ring the water bright red
while contemplating what might lie ahead
she's getting tired and dizzy at last
she's overcoming
all pretence and disguise
she's overcoming
his deceptions and lies
and she's hearing music
wonderful, beautiful music
now, that she's joining the angels' choir
she's hearing music
wonderful, beautiful music
now, that she's joining the angels' choir
