You Won't Feel A Thing Lyrics
I can't find the strength to say that you're gonna be okay.
I don't want to lie that way.
Pencil shavings coat my teeth,
But the lead inside tastes more like blood to me.
There's a knife inside of me
And it's twisting
ever so slowly
slowly it seems.
So please, just let me know
What it is like to be 'safely' put to sleep.
Days become months, and I've never felt more alone.
Just for one second I remember
What it's like for you to be home
But we have to save you from this pain.
It cripples me to see your fragile heart in strain.
Cause I don't wanna know that pain is your last memory.
Cause I don't wanna know that pain is your memory.
Cause I don't wanna know that pain is your last memory
Who's to say this is for the best?
When the lines are blurred
And the veins on my chest are swollen by the fear of death?
Like the needles in your leg
Or the water in your lungs
I will be your last memory.
Whilst slightly morbid - this song is about putting your dog to sleep, and doing the best thing for them. The lyrics reference hoping you can relieve them from any pain, and knowing that as long as you are there, you will be the last memory for them.
