"Who Is Thomas Saunders and Why Is He Significant in Your Writings?"

Hopeless, you’re told; fearful of the day she dies
Do they see this as a waste of your time?
The life you’ll lead if you outlive her
Count the days until you sleep
Spiral downward, you knew you would never cope
Was it worthwhile knowing you would sink this low?
For the life you’ll lead if you outlive her
Count the days until you sleep
