Ethel Cain - Infirmary lyrics

Watching him lie there on that stone
It hurts me more than you could know
His body’s limp and his eyes are glass
He told me not to look back

They’ll bury you if I turn away
Cause you cannot move and we cannot stay
But, my love i cannot leave you here
Not out of love but out of fear

And I’d cry and cry and leave you in my wake
Would you haunt me
Just to ease my memory’s sake
Cause if I forget the things that made us us
I might believe i just made you up

This sickness killed my only love
Destroying what i’m made up of
I’d beg for god to give you back
But he isn’t there and you told me that

I’ve lost the one thing that i had
I knew that it’d hurt
But I didn’t know how bad

And I’d cry and cry and leave you in my wake
Would you haunt me
Just to ease my memory’s sake
Cause if I forget the things that made us us
I might believe i just made you up

Please come back to me my love
My vision’s blurred and I can’t see
Prostrate on the ground in silence
Six feet under with you
Is where I’d rather be please
Please please
Oh please come back to me
Oh please please just kill me
Please
