I knew he was hurt

I heard his fevered breath in the night

I saw this coming

.

So why do I blame you

.

Because you should have seen this

You should have protected him

when I failed

.

Are you going to ask him to break his promise

If you do I will kill you

Being a heir will be forgotten to me

The word traitor will only refer to you

.

You know this

So why do you ask this of me

.

To leave him

To abandon him

To put everything else ahead of him

.

When he almost drowned

I almost went with him

.

When he faced the bullies

I was there to dry his tears

.

When he was born

and we thought he wouldn't make the night

I told him I loved him

And he lived

.

Only together will we live

Don't ask me to leave him

.

Do not ask this of me.
