I wasn't there when you burnt your ankle.

​

I wasn’t there when you lit the matches.

I wasn't there when you died.

​

I wasn’t there when you danced.

I wasn’t there when you suffered.

I wasn’t there when you were born.

I wasn’t there when you worked for my sins.

I wasn’t there when you cried.

I wasn’t there when you ran.

I wasn’t there when you begged me.

​

I wasn’t there when you took the pills and fell.

​

I was there when your heart started beating.

But I wasn’t there... when it stopped.

​

I wasn’t there.
