DEATH WATCH
Text Richard Vasquez, Texas I Music Cyrill Greter
I am not giving up!
I am fighting until the end, until there is no room to fight.
I am hurting inside, it´s tearing me apart,
but I will not give up!
I am fighting until the end, until there is no room to fight.
All these years of suffering, I will not put to waste.
The pain I feel is real, I feel it everyday.
It bleeds inside of me, I shed tears for my loved ones.
I think of them and I hurt.
I hurt because they should not be feeling this way
because of me.
I am the one who got sentenced to death, not them!
But Love, the REAL love,
the UNCONDITIONAL love is what keeps us together!
If my loved ones want to hurt with me and die with me.
I will let them share this pain with me!
But I am not giving up.
I am fighting until the end, until there is no room to fight...
