Let It Be Exaggeration

I'm sick of the doctors not playing their role

Hitting ideas with a six foot pole...

 

I don't want to wait any longer than I have to

Sitting at home contemplating if I'll ever see you...

 

Fourteen years isn't nearly enough

[This is fraud]

I can't do anything but pray to God

 

If I could take your place

I would do so in a heart beat

Just to avoid the pain written all over your face

And the tears rolling down my cheek...

 

Cat-scans,

Ultra - sounds and endless tests

When will they stop wasting our time

Exaggeration should be our nation's number one crime...

 

YOU'RE TOO YOUNG TO LEAVE!!

I won't let them make you believe

 

That this is the end

Because it's not - not if it's your life you plan to defend...

 

You're my sister and I would do anything to keep you

No matter what it is they say

No matter if they tell me that's something I cannot do

I'll push them aside - and I'll make this go away!

 

I thought it was just a stomach ache

You always had them and dad wouldn't tell me anything

Now my patience is ready to break

I cannot believe he would tell me it was nothing

 

I could not sleep last night

Thinking what if

and

It might

 

I know that you must be terrified

And it scares me that you're stronger now

Nothing yet has been clarrified

I haven't heard you cry

And I can't figure out why...

 

You're the one that knows how to keep me breathing

You knew how to keep a straight face when I was leaving...

And until tomorrow comes around

We won't know if it's cancer that they found...

 

But I will NOT say my goodbyes

I will wipe these tired redened eyes

and wait for tomorrow's call

Hoping that those doctors put up an exaggerated wall...
