You'd protect me

You promised you'd protect me.
I knew you'd stand in the way.

you saved me from that bullet.
I'll never forget that day.

You smiled
And you laughed
And you kissed me on the cheek.

You held me in your arms,
Each moment
Of each day
Of each week.

That day our roles were reversed
And I hold you instead.

Why'd out have to protect me?
'Cuz now your dead.
