Prepared Songtext
von Georgia Stitt

All of her papers were in order
Nothing was left unsigned
We had the hard conversations
About what she was leaving behind
There were some moments of laughter
She promised she wasn′t scared
But I wasn't prepared
I wasn′t prepared
We talked to the doctors and lawyers
I made sure her wishes were known
We cried and we prayed together
And then I was crying alone
Nothing compares to the silence
Erasing the life we shared
You can't be prepared
You can't be prepared
Everyone talks about loss
Like it′s part of a story A game we all play
There′s death and despair
In the news every day
Hundreds of people who don't catch your eye
Hundreds of strangers who quietly die
One sole companion you never imagined would go
But what did you know?
Strange how the sun keeps on shining
What a false message it sends
Part of the saga of living
Is learning that everything ends
She asked me to let her go quickly
Said that′s what I'd do if I cared
But I′m unprepared
I'm so unprepared
You′re never prepared
You're never prepared
