"Infirmary" lyrics - ETHEL CAIN
Watching him lie there
On that stone
It hurts me more
Than you could know
His body's limp
And his eyes are glass
He told me not
To look back
They'll bury you
If I turn away
'Cause you cannot move
And we cannot stay
But, my love
I cannot leave you here
Not out of love
But out of fear
And I'd cry and cry
And leave you in my wake
Would you haunt me
Just to ease my memory's sake
'Cause if I forget
The things that made us us
I might believe
I just made you up
This sickness killed
My only love
Destroying what
I'm made up of
I'd beg for god
To give you back
But he isn't there
And you told me that
I've lost the one thing
That I had
I knew that it'd hurt
But I didn't know how bad
And I'd cry and cry
And leave you in my wake
Would you haunt me
Just to ease my memory's sake
'Cause if I forget
The things that made us us
I might believe
I just made you up
Please come back to me my love
My vision's blurred
And I can't see
Prostrate on the ground in silence
Six feet under with you
Is where I'd rather be
Please
Please
Please
Oh please
Come back to me
Oh please
Please just kill me
Please
