(I Didn't) Save Her

It's like I'm on a battlefield, afraid of what's to come
Not afraid to die by the bullet, but live with what I've done
Oh God I pray that I was dreaming, just my mind playing games
I stared her in the eyes prior to it, screaming out words of hate

But Why, did I have to break, every vow that we made together
And Why did I stand aside, when I didn't know that it would be forever

I rushed in to the car and headed, to where you called me in distress
I pulled you out from underneath wreckage, only moments from death

She said "I'd, like to name the girl Lily", as she pointed at the baby she carried
And "before I die, try to save her, and take care of her better than you did me

I didn't save her, I didn't save her
Down on my knees

Ambulance rushin' in, tryin to save the kid
I'm just lying here regretting all the things I did
Can't stop thinking about it, can't stop crying bout it
I can't live or go on, without my wife!
