Because I love you,
I will hide my pain.
I will act as if I am completely sane

Because I love you,
I'll give you a kiss and a hug,
But the hole in my chest will open with just one little tug.

Because I love you,
I will laugh and smile.
Just for you,
I can do this for a while.

Because I love you,
It's easier to live.
But you've done so much,
How much more can you give?

Because I love you,
I can no longer endure,
I have made a decision and this is for sure

Because I love you,
It's time to say goodbye,
I'm sorry if it feels like just one big lie

Because I love you,
I will finally go,
I was blinded by darkness
But I hope you'll never know

Because I love you
I wish you the best,
As I lie in this coffin
And lay my head to rest
