Lyrics
What Would You Do?
(Lyrics – M. Novak, C. Webster - Music M. Novak)
If your day comes and the reasons are many
Your life consumed by ever present pain
Would you leave your loved ones without a penny
Your options depleted with nothing to gain.
With age comes illness are you prepared
All the medical miracles come at a very high price.
You wear the mask of sanity but within you’re scared
Was your condition self inflicted by your vice.
CHORUS:
What would you do if the time came
What would you do
What would you do what would you blame
What would you do
What would you do at the end of your game
What would you do
Before you pull the trigger would you feel shame
What would you do
What would you do
One choice remains what would you do
The church and state and family say it’s all wrong
Others condemn you but they don’t have your point of view
What would they do if it was their swan song
CHORUS:
When life verses death is put on the scale
Have you considered all the issues with open eyes
When the will to live is gone a tough choice prevails
The end result will be your self inflicted demise
CHORUS:
