zdoggmd – ain’t the way to die lyrics

Loading...

[intro chorus]
just gonna stand there and watch me burn
end of life and all my wishes go unheard…
they just prolong me and don’t ask why?
it’s not right because this ain’t the way to die
this ain’t the way to die…

[verse 1: patient]
i can’t tell you what i really want, you can only guess what it feels like
and right now, it’s a steel knife in my windpipe
i can’t breathe, but you still fight cuz you can fight
long as the wrong’s done right, protocol’s tight
high off of drugs, try to sedate
i’m like a pincushion, i hate it, the more i suffer, i suffocate
right before i’m about to die, you resuscitate
me, you think you’ve saved me, and i hate it + “wait!
lemme go, i’m leaving you!” + “no i ain’t…
tube is out” + you put it right back, here we go again
it’s so insane, cuz thought you think it’s good, i’m so in pain
i more machine than man now, i’m anakin!
and no advanced directive, i feel so ashamed
and cr+p, who’s that nurse? i don’t even know her name!
you lay hands on me, to prolong my life again
i guess that you must think that this is living…

[chorus]
just gonna stand there and watch me burn
end of life and all my wishes go unheard…
they just prolong me and don’t ask why?
it’s my right to choose the way that i should die
way that i should die (zdoggmd)
way that i should die… (this ain’t easy, get the family…)

[verse 2: doctor]
you ever love somebody so much you can barely see when you with ’em
that they lay sick and dying but you just don’t wanna let ’em
be at peace cuz you miss ’em already but they ain’t gone
beep! beep! the ventilator alarms…
i swore i’d never harm ’em, never do nothin’ to hurt ’em
hippocratic oath, primum non nocere, now i’m forced just to torture ’em
they push full code, no one knows what his wishes were
his sister heard him say once, “i don’t wanna be a vegetable”
but no one agrees in the family, the caregiver, kate
wants him comfort care but aunt claire lives so far away
that her guilt eats her like a cancer so she answers + “wait!!”
“i think he’ll wait!” + ma’am, you ain’t even in the state!
palliate, relieve pain, get him home, explain
critical care, just hypocritical, when it’s so insane
but they insist i shock his heart again, so i persist
i guess that’s why they say that love is pain…

[chorus]
just gonna stand there and watch me burn
end of life and all my wishes go unheard…
they just prolong me and don’t ask why?
it’s my right to choose the way that i should die
way that i should die
way that i should die…
(ventilator noises/ machine noises)
(flatlining…)

[outro: on+screen statement]
(it always seems too soon, until it’s too late. talk about your end of life wishes now with those you love)
