One Last Wish

I don't want to reassure

What I want to condemn

Complicity comes by so easy it scares me

It's second nature to man

Just look what they're calling living this year

Just look what it wears

Second-hand, it makes no demand

While I hold what's most precious to me as it falls

But this is mine, this is my last wish

Well, I feel my hands ready to motion no more

Yeah, this is mine, this is my one last wish

And I trust this like an instinct

And it flushes through my body

Settles into my hands

Doubled up with intention like wire

I only want to descend

Like the rain, like the rain when it comes

Leaving nothing to waste

I close my eyes, I close my eyes

And pinch myself to say "yes"

I give it, I give it, I give it up

But this is mine, this is my last wish

Well, I feel my hands ready to motion no more

This is mine, this is my one last wish

And I trust this like an instinct

Yes, I do

I said I do

I said I do

I said I do

And I do
