Alone, forgotten, fearing each day,
I wait for the hero who will take me away.
He comes so often, on wings of blue,
I know now my dreams have come true.

Now we soar, away so free,
away from the horrid misery.
I feel a love so real, so true,
I know that he is my savior.

You seem so odd, so strange so distant,
is it something that must happen?
That look in your eye tells me of tidings,
forever evil and forever climbing.

The pain, the anguish, I cannot bear,
too much to see, too much to spare.
Strike me down before I go,
insane with the woe, so distant, let me go.

And now it’s time to say goodbye,
my dear, my darling, love of my life.
I’ll fade away to eternal slumber,
I know your days are now numbered.

I’m waiting, so lost, so scared,
as I was before you dared,
to rescue me so boldly, so brave,
I’m waiting here in the grave.
