A court rules that it is not right
To allow a man to quit his desperate fight
The family wishes his pain to go on
Pain lasts with eternities songs
The brain dies with every beat
The body looses it's life's heat
He asks God to take him now
To stop the machines somehow
But the supposed loved ones arrive
The Doctors say he is no longer alive
Yet they can't give up on him
So they commit a unwritten sin
To watch him fade slowly away
They will keep him another day.
