1 Fibre is a Death Wish
"Imagine going all those years without knowing?"
Breathe In
Breathe Out
Living life without a doubt
Asbestos underground
No protection from this joust
Three daughters and a wife
No way I wanna cut this life shorter
Than it needs to be
Help them go on and achieve their dreams
But I've got this cough that I can't knock off
Maybe I need a day off from the docks
Is there a secret I'm about to unlock?
20 Years of bliss
Am I gonna be missed?
Grafting's all I'm worth?
Granddaughters birth
No attendance since
One fibre is a death wish
Heart stops
Breath drops
My stomachs in knots
Five years not a lot
My youngest eight
I can't have the weight
Of never seeing her grow up to be great
I don't wanna deal with the pain
I'd rather help others whilst I'm still awake
Down at the CAB I go
Helping other families as if they're my own
Janet's had a baby called Katie
With hydrocephalus and cereal palsy
Maybe this is the key to life eternity?
20 Years of bliss
Am I gonna be missed?
Grafting's all I'm worth?
Granddaughters birth
No attendance since
One fibre is a death wish
I'm sorry you never got to meet me
I hope I'm making you proud
I'm trying to show your legacy
As loud as I can
Thank you for putting yourself last
Thank you for risking your life for our safety
We all owe you the world
And if I could be half of who you were
I'd know I've done something right
And I love you
And in a life later than the one I'm in
I can't wait to meet you
And tell you how you were my idol
Even in death
Breathe In
Breathe Out
Living life without a doubt
Asbestos underground
No protection from this joust
Three daughters and a wife
No way I wanna cut this life shorter
Than it needs to be
Help them go on and achieve their dreams
But I've got this cough that I can't knock off
Maybe I need a day off from the docks
Is there a secret I'm about to unlock?
20 Years of bliss
Am I gonna be missed?
Grafting's all I'm worth?
Granddaughters birth
No attendance since
One fibre is a death wish
Heart stops

My stomachs in knots
Five years not a lot
My youngest eight
I can't have the weight
Of never seeing her grow up to be great
I don't wanna deal with the pain
I'd rather help others whilst I'm still awake
Down at the CAB I go
Helping other families as if they're my own

And in a life later than the one I'm in
I can't wait to meet you
And tell you how you were my idol
Even in death
