Confession

Springtime and the storm had passed
The search had long since ended
A man would find her thawing in the leaves
The ice of winter had preserved the scene
But could not tell the reasons

She said I know you want to leave
But I can't do this on my own
I know that this is wrong
But I don't want to die alone

And now there's no one left to tell them
That she didn't want to live
I swear I've never felt so helpless
As when she handed me the gun
And only tears would come

She said I know you want to leave
But I can't do this on my own
I know that this is wrong
But I don't want to die alone
She said I know you want to leave
But I can't do this on my own
I can't do this on my own
I can't do this

God help me I just left her there
Drove away as she was dying

I never felt so close to Hell (x4)

She said I know you want to leave
But I can't do this on my own
I know that this is wrong
But I don't want to die alone
I don't want to die alone (x3)

She didn't want to die alone

Springtime and the storm had passed
The search had long since ended
A man would find her thawing in the leaves
The ice of winter had preserved the scene
But could not tell the reasons

We'd never been so close to Hell
