The Antlers Kettering [In London] lyrics

I wish I had known in that first minute that we met
The unpayable debt that I owed you
Because you'd been abused by the bone that refused you
And you hired me to make up for that
Walking in that room when you had tubes in your arms
Those singing morphine alarms out of tune kept you sleeping and even
And I didn't believe them when they called you a hurricane thunderclap
When I was checking vitals I suggested a smile
You didn't talk for a while, you were freezing

You said you hated my tone, it made you feel so alone
And you told me I ought to be leaving
But something kept me standing by that hospital bed
I should have quit, but instead I took care of you
You made me sleep and uneven
And I didn't believe them whenthey told me that there was no saving you
