Sworn Enemy

So here's a question I have to ask
Do we take the time, can we make a last
A gift so precious we choose to ignore
Now face the facts, no turning back
Wishing for the chance to say the things you couldn't say
Wish it was differently
Taking for granted it may be too late
With every breath, closer to death

Suffer the pain of a loss so suddenly
Regret now what could never be
Feeling it could never happen to me
Until you spend so much time on your knees
Suffer the pain of a loss so suddenly
Regret now what could never be
Feeling it could never happen to me
Until you spend so much time on your knees

No one hears you pleas
With your rosary in hand
You try to understand

You pray, you pray, you pray, and still you pray
But no more today
Everything we touch in an instant
Can be taken away
Never forget the reality of things to come
What could I say
Make damn sure the beauty that you hold on to doesn't just wash away

Suffer the pain of a loss so suddenly
Regret now what could never be
Feeling it could never happen to me
Until you spend so much time on your knees
Suffer the pain of a loss so suddenly
Regret now what could never be
Feeling it could never happen to me
Until you spend so much time on your knees

No one hears you pleas
With your rosary in hand
You try to understand
Try to understand

Here today, gone tomorrow
Spend this life living in sorrow
Here today, gone tomorrow
Here today, gone tomorrow
Spend this life living in sorrow
Here today, gone tomorrow

Now your pain is gone
Now your pain is gone
