Think of Me

The sky descends in darkness
As clouds block out the sun
The end he always feared
Appears
To have at last begun
The hope he found is nearly lost
And nothing can replace it

Think of me I'm your father
We have been through this before
We have been through this and more
From the cradle to the grave
We have been through this
Together once before

His options are exhausted
And his choices next to none
The battle that he faces now
May be the final one
The dreams he had are dashed
Against the rocks of least resistance

Think of me I'm your mother
We have been through this before
We have been through this and more
From each cradle to each grave
We have been through this together
Many, many times before

He cannot go much further
He thinks he's reached the end
The energy he still has left
Is less than he can spend
All hope he had has taken flight
And cannot be recovered

Think of me I'm your brother
We have been through this before
We have been through this and more
From our cradles to our graves
We have been through this together
In so many ways before

All light seems gone
And love does too
No shelter from the storm
There is no place on earth he knows
That qualifies as warm
He cannot find one place to be
That isn't where he's been

Think of me I am you I am you
We have been through this before
We have been through this and more
In all the cradles and the graves
We have been through this
Through all our lives together
