Flatline

she met him on a train
he didn't take his eyes off of her face
they talked for hours and as he smiled
she knew he was the one
too bad they'll never see each other again

way up high I see the rockets fire
their soot to the earth
they blacken her skies
pushed from the tongues of liars
I can hear her heartbeat still
and the kids will play even as it flatlines

don't take her
don't take her
don't take her from me

too bad they'll never see each other again
