When you told me you were leaving
I broke down into tears
You're taking away all that's good
And leaving me alone with my fears

I was worried about the dangerous job
I didn't know if you could deal
With your stress and heart conditions
I didn't want to beleive it was real

Day after day you worked on the rigs
As I lived my life in fear
Struggling for the money you require
To start up your new career

I remember the day I got the call
I was lying in my bed
They asked me if I knew who you were
Then they told me you were dead

I choked on my breath and started to cry
I could not beleive that it was true
Our whole relationship flashed before my eyes
And all I could think of was you

They told me you were not paying attention
As the pressure in the lines increased
By the time you noticed how high it was
There were seconds before you were deceased

The lines pressure grew so high
The lines exploded and fire began
You fought threw the oil like the soldier I knew
But the intense heat was too much for any man

Now the days that I once spent with you
Being so stupid and unaware
Are spent leaving flowers on your grave
To show that I still care
