lyrics

They want to give you something for it,
To fight it once again,
Send soldiers into your blood stream,
Soldiers to defend you.

And the captain in the hospital bed
Would pliantly agree,
For the captain is indifferent now,
Gracious but fatigued.

Oh Monica, you’ve always lived so beautifully,
And they want you to last forever.

But maybe this pneumonia,
Could it be that it’s on your side?
Offering to let you down now,
And take the burden to decide?

Decide when the river should meet the ocean,
With which breath.
Could it be that these small intruders
Might finally give you rest?

Oh Monica, you’ve always lived so beautifully,
And they want you to last forever.
