its dying words

Don't do it for mine, but for your own sake

If you choose to take it

I stood by it til its last sigh
Then disappeared from the scene of the crime
Locked away and served my time

Cause in a great divide
F#m D
Where a line is drawn

Oh you must decide

which half you're standing on

Today I met a new love
How could I be sure
Whether it was ever true love
That I had known before
